Held in conjunction with the annual Gusto Italiano promotion, guest Chefs Karl and Rudolf Obauer showcased a spectacular menu of the finest cuisine at Dolce Vita in Mandarin Oriental, Singapore, from 30 October to 2 November 2014.
With the eclectic philosophy of incorporating modern elements and traditional styles of cooking with local seasonal ingredients, the Obauer brothers have established themselves as some of the greatest chefs in Austria. Their restaurant and hotel in Werfen, Austria, has been lauded by culinary critics, including the prestigious two Michelin stars for twelve years, and the duo was also named Chefs of the Decade by Gault Millau Austria.
Culinary masterpieces on the menu include the chefs’ appetising Raw Alpine Salmon, served with grapefruit marmalade, horseradish and zucchini, and the savoury Lake Char Lasagna, topped with basil, rosemary and an aromatic Gruner Veltliner sauce. Other signature highlights also include the flavourful Saddle of Lamb, paired with a delectable combination of sour cream radish, parsley paste and sweet potato, the Veal Knuckle Ragout, accompanied with a tantalising semolina dumpling, as well as the enticing Filet of Beef, cooked to tender perfection alongside nuts, raisins, cabbage, brown bread and drizzled with a touch of malt beer sauce.
I had the opportunity to savour a preview tasting earlier in the week:
I missed the dessert as I have to run for another meeting. You can read about it on Keropokman’s blog.
This is my first induction into Austrian cuisine and I got to try one of the very best. I love the emphasis on fresh ingredient, keeping it simple like the steamed pike and saddle of lamb, but enhancing the flavours with seasonings and sides. The cauliflower jelly was a culinary adventure for me, trying it for the first time.
