WHERE: Bvlgari Resort Dubai
WHAT: Grand Tour
The fabulous Grand Tour culinary project at Il Ristorante – Niko Romito starts on October 18th, with an exclusive tasting menu created by chef Niko Romito himself (Dhs550 per person). Inspired by the sabbatical trip taken by young European intellectuals in the seventeenth century to explore the wonders of Italian art, culture and gastronomy, the Grand Tour aims to take guests on a journey through different destinations, via their tastebuds. The antipasti tour passes through Naples, the mains meander through Venice, then via Florence for the sides, ending in Palermo for dessert.
