Macau’s Caffé B welcomes top-notch Italian Chef Andrea Zanella. With over 30 years of experience in the kitchen, the talented chef is a veteran when it comes to understanding the flavors of Europe and Asia outside of Italy.
Having worked in Switzerland, the UK and nearly 20 years in Asia between Bangkok and Phuket in Thailand and Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia after obtaining in 1994 a Michelin Star at Ristorante San Bassiano in Bassano del Grappa, Vicenza, Veneto, Italy, the Venetian native is at much at home with soya sauce, kombu and sambal as he is with polenta, pancetta, and radicchio.
However, despite all his travels and passion for bringing in a little bit of what he learns from each place, Chef Andrea remains a purist, priding himself on delicious culinary creations which give a contemporary, cosmopolitan perspective, while remaining authentic to his Italian heritage.
In a special upcoming wine dinner, he celebrates his new home in Macau with a menu which takes pride in his Venetian roots as he takes Baccalà or Bacalhau and Suckling Pig, perhaps the two most iconic dishes shared by both Macau and Veneto, to give a modern rendition of the dish speaking as authentically to Venetians as to the Macanese.
Complementing this celebratory Venetian/Macau wine dinner will be an eclectic selection of wines including those of Santa Sofia, the oldest producer in Valpolicella, Veneto still independent and family-owned and Niepoort, Portugal’s most internationally-renowned wine and port producer.
When: 7pm, Saturday, September 9, 2017
