Cooking Class @ W52

這一篇是食譜的分享,而且是懶人版。早前獲邀出席 W52 (相關舊文) 的媒體 Cooking class,我就最愛上烹飪班的了,而且 W52 是我覺得城中吃手做 pasta 最好的餐廳之一,完全沒有拒絕的理由!席間大廚 Chef Francesco Berardinelli、美女公關 C 小姐還有其他的記者們都是說英文的,所以也是全英語授課。

地點在 W52 的三樓,一個很有私隱的空間,可容納約 6~8 人,小班教學。桌上預先擺放好食譜,還有圖中這本由 Chef Berardinelli 加上插圖的筆記本,很精美!想不到 Francesco 煮菜好吃,還畫得一手好畫呢!

先來就是一道驚喜,話說原本只是預備了三個菜式,但 Francesco 在街市看到這條鯛魚很新鮮,立即買了,之後即場再教大家做鯛魚 Carpaccio,還加入了紅石榴和果仁作醬汁,很適合的配搭。(食譜從缺)

前菜 (Antipasto) 是這個 Beef Carpaccio,有我最愛的 Artichokes 啊!!!!
