Chef Francisco will be cooking at The Library for five days (from 6th to 10th March 2018). During this time, he will be presenting a seven-course menu showcasing modern European cuisine with the highlight firmly on seafood dishes.
Our luncheon began with a quartet of amuse bouche, including Crispy scallop with herbs, Smoked celeriac hen egg, Shrimp with tomato and watermelon and Beetroot tartlet along with a glass of crisp San Feletto Prosecco Brut. A myriad of different, interesting textures - crispy dehydrated scallop sheet, smooth creamy celeriac, crunchy shrimp and a crisp tartlet, to whet our appetites.
You can never go wrong with an oyster and caviar pairing, further enhanced by a light cauliflower espuma and a glass of Vionta Albarino Blanca.
Scallops make an appearance again on the menu, this time receiving the ceviche treatment and served with ginger and cilantro. Below the scallop ceviche are seared scallops, for different texture and taste. Paired with the Ventisquero Reserva Sauvignon Blanc.
Arborio rice is cooked in a spinach and clam chowder stock, giving the Arroz Verde a vibrant green hue. The al dente rice is then topped with Carabinero shrimp carpaccio as well as deep fried crispy prawn legs.
Our final main of the afternoon was the Japanese orange sea bream, pan seared to give it a nice, crispy finish. It was served with two rather complex tasting sauces, squid ink and prawn bisque as well as calamari and zucchini blossom stuffed with prawn mousse. Paired with the Ventisquero Reserva Chardonnay.
For a sweet end, a glass of sweet Roustabout Late Harvest Viognier to go with the decadent Pandan financier with pandan ice cream, white chocolate foam, and a Late Harvest jelly.
