Trattoria, the beloved Italian eatery nestled among the Venetian canals of Souk Madinat Jumeirah, is bringing a taste of the Mediterranean coast to the emirate this month to coincide with the 16th Italian Cuisine World Summit.
From 5-7 November, Trattoria will celebrate the best of modern Italian seafood through the creative lens of two talented young chefs. Marco Bernardo, chef at the Michelin-starred La Magnolia in the Tuscan town of Forte dei Marmi, join forces with Omar El Ajmi, Trattoria’s Head Chef, for a special menu that celebrates the spirit of the sea.
With both chefs in their early thirties and shaped by years spent in acclaimed kitchens across Europe, the collaboration reflects a new generation of Italian culinary talent: Creative, precise, and inspired by their country’s abundant coastlines.
The three-night, four-hands collaboration includes a four-course menu highlighting the purity and vibrancy of seafood. From delicate amberjack paired with Stracciatella and Nepitella to charcoal-grilled sea bass and langoustine pasta, every dish captures the freshness, texture, and soul of Italy’s coastal heritage.
The Four-Hands MICHELIN Set Menu:
- Starter: Ricciola Scottata; Amberjack with stracciatella, nepitella, and marinated celery
- Pasta: Tubetti Scampi e Pollo; Gragnano ‘gentile’ tubetti pasta with langoustines and roasted chicken jus
- Main Course: Branzino ai Carboni; Charcoal-grilled sea bass, zucchine alla scapece, and almond curd
- Dessert: Tre Latti; Sheep-milk marshmallow, buffalo-milk cream, cow-milk meringue
Available exclusively for dinner from 7-10pm, priced at Dh285 per person (food only), the experience invites diners to allow Trattoria to transport them to the Tuscan coast and explore a refined yet approachable expression of Italian gastronomy amid the calm canals of Souk Madinat Jumeirah.
A bespoke selection of Italian wines available a la carte and exclusively for the to pair with this four hands menu.
