The Great Italian Affair at JW Marriott Kolkata

New Delhi, July 27, 2019: Italian cuisine is world famous and has influenced the cuisine of many continents. It is one of the few western cuisines that leave a palatable mark on your plate. To satiate your Italian cravings, your favourite star property, JW Marriott Kolkata is hosting a 10-day long ‘Italian Food Festival’ from 26^th July to 4^th August at their all – day dining, JW Kitchen. 

Italian cuisine started taking its nascent form with different types of bread and pastas. Ever since then, Milan has become famous for its risottos, Bologna for its tortellini and Naples for its pizzas. Experience the grandeur of an all Italian menu curated by the expat speciality Chef Valter Belli along with the in house culinary team. With over 30 years of hands on experience in specializing traditional Italian delicacies with a twist, chef Belli was motivated by gastronomic and wine making traditions from his home-town in Emilia-Romagna. He has worked in major countries like Europe, Africa, Middle East, and Caribbean and now in Southeast Asia in Dhaka as a speciality expat chef.

With a specially tailored menu to tantalize your taste buds, the culinary maestro is all set to take you on a flavourful Italian sojourn to the Kitchens of Italy.  Savour an array of classic and flavoursome soups like like ‘Barley pearl with mushrooms and chicken soup’, ‘Octopus and chickpea soup’ and ‘Potato gnocchi stuffed with Taleggio cheese’. Relish the appetizers like ‘Duck Breast ham and caramelized fig bruschetta’, ‘Antipasto Emiliano’, a mix of Italian cold cut, gnocco fritto, erbazzone savory cake, grill vegetable and ‘Vitello Tonnato’, cold sliced veal loin, seasonal green salad, tuna capers sauce and bread parmesan crouton.

Indulge in the scrumptious entrée like ‘Crispy pork belly’ with cauliflower puree and balsamic caramelized onion, ‘Mackerel fillet’ with cream of Roman broccoli, purple cauliflower and potato gnocchi, ‘Filet of sea bass’  with red lentil cream, fried polenta.
