• Osteria Marzia unveils new summer menu by Chef Luca Marinelli

    New Seasonal Tasting Menu Experience at Osteria Marzia

    The new six-course seasonal tasting menu immerses guests into the slow, sun-drenched, and utterly delicious way of Italian coastal living. For HK$788 plus 10% service charge per guest, experience the finest ocean-inspired fare from Chef Luca – reminiscent of diving into the crystal-clear depths of the Adriatic Sea or frolicking on the white sand beaches of Sardinia.

    The new tasting journey begins with the Italian cultural ritual of aperitivo, followed by the first course of Gambero Rosso, or Sicilian red prawns with trumpet zucchini and quinoa. From one seafood delight to another, Ventresca de Tonno features Spanish tuna belly with a Tuscan-style Panzanella salad, Taggiasca olive tapenade and celery. Calamarata, a tubular type of pasta given its name due to its resemblance to calamari, is served with brown butter, smoked oyster ragu and sweet garlic. For the main course, savour Pescato del Giorno all’Acqua Pazza, a fillet of market fish prepared with an exquisitely herbed broth of Hokkaido clams and date tomatoes. Dessert is a delectable affair of Freshly Churned Gelato and hand-made Cannoli Siciliani, a traditional sweet Sicilian pastry filled with ricotta, chocolate chips, cinnamon and candied orange.
