Vegan Menu @BiCE Ristorante
I was recently invited to the Go Vegan food tasting menu at
Hilton Jumeirah. The menu has been curated by Kamilla and Chef Davide. Am I
vegan? No! but do I love some good food? Yes, absolutely.
I walked into a beautiful dim lit restaurant buzzing with a quiet
excitement. I was ushered to my table within minutes of entering the restaurant,
and I loved how courteous and well informed the staff was.
I started off with some freshly baked bread and dips, and of
course some red wine. I went with Nero D’Avola which was suggested by Asia (I hope
I got his name right). It was light and perfect for the evening.
I was served tacos on a bed of rocket leaves. I bit into the
crispy taco to find some yummy avocado, hints of lime and caramelized onion. It
was delectable. Loved it.
My plate was cleared for the first course of Mushroom and truffle
dumplings. The mushroom was filled with a bronoise of mushroom and vegetables
and was served on miso broth. I was there was more broth, but I know not many
like it. I enjoyed It and the evidence was
a clean plate.
For the main course I had eggplant Moussaka. I loved the texture
of vegan cheese and meat combined with eggplant lasagna and tomato and basil
puree. It was a little difficult to cut into, but it was so worth every morsel.
It tasted amazing (must try).
To finish off, I was served the Vegan temptation – which was
chocolate fudge topped with raspberry wafer and berry sorbet. The fudge was
gooey and paired well with the sorbet. I didn’t like the waffle wafer much, but
the addition of fresh berries and chocolate sauce was the perfect finish to
this vegan affair.
The staff were extremely attentive and were well versed with
the menu which was a plus. They ensured every guest was comfortable and taken
care off. I was served by Haider, and I had brief yet memorable conversation
with Anusa and Asia.
The Vegan 3 course meal in on for 2 weeks and is priced at
AED 170 each. In my opinion, you must try it.
