LPM Restaurant & Bar Dubai, renowned for its celebrated Riviera-inspired cuisine, is set to host an exclusive series of three Wine Dinners throughout the months of October, November, and December. These exclusive dinners will offer a rare opportunity to savour a curated selection of exceptional wines meticulously paired with a multi-course menu crafted by LPM’s Global Executive Chef Adriano Cattaneo.
Throughout the dinner series, a diverse range of vinicultural styles and regions from distinguished French wineries and champagne houses will take centre stage, offering a one-of-a-kind dining experience in LPM’s elevated semi-private dining area – La Salle à Manger. Each dinner will be co-hosted by a representative from each producer who will personally guide an intimate group of guests through the enchanting evening.
“We have looked for the special, the unusual, the vineyards and makers that have a story to tell. We carefully curated a selection of wines and champagnes to elevate the dining experience and take it to new heights. But our ambition goes far beyond that. We aim to take guests, if we can, to somewhere they have not been and somewhere they will not forget.” says LPM’s Regional Head of Wines, Gregg Lambert.
- Starting this series on a high note, the first dinner will be hosted by Andrea Fasan, LPM’s Global Head Sommelier and Thomas Duroux, CEO of Chateau Palmer on October 25th. This evening promises a gastronomic symphony, harmonising a curated menu with the finest wines from Château Palmer, which rank among the most prestigious in Bordeaux and are highly coveted by discerning wine enthusiasts. “Chateau Palmer and LPM have a long-lasting relationship that started in London a few years ago. I don’t know of any other wine list in the world with such a selection of Chateau Palmer’s wines. I am thrilled to come to Dubai to celebrate this friendship with such an exclusive dinner curated by Chef Adriano Cattaneo.”
About the menu: Diners can indulge in a selection of starters, such as the Warm Prawns with Olive Oil and Lemon Juice or the Snails with Garlic Butter and Parsley, classics that pair perfectly with Château Palmer. Exclusive dishes featured in the main course include Mushroom Risotto with Aged Parmesan and Truffle or Pan Fried Foie Gras with Balsamic Reduction. End the dinner sweetly with the Thinly Sliced Apple Tart with Vanilla Ice Cream or the Vanilla Cheesecake with Homemade Berry Compote.
- This unique event series continues a few weeks later with a second edition hosted by the esteemed Maison Bruno Paillard on November 7th. “The breadth and precision of the cuisine at LPM, the uncompromising quality of the ingredients and service as well as its intimately curated and art-filled interiors seemed the evident setting in which to embark on a culinary journey of discovery through Maison Bruno Paillard and its Champagnes.”, says Emilie Margaux Fastré, Maison Bruno Paillard’s Export Manager.
About the menu: The gastronomic journey commences with Oysters with Homemade Smoked Tabasco and Crispy Quinoa, paired with a glass of the smooth NV Bruno Paillard Première Cuvée Magnum bottle. Following this are various seafood starters, including the Crispy Squid with Paprika and Green Chili, Thinly Sliced Octopus with Lemon and Green Chili Dressing, or a Caesar Salad with Artichokes and Quail Eggs. An exclusive dish introduced during this Wine Dinner Series is the Yoghurt Marinated Veal Chop with Sage and Anchovies, available in the main course. Before dessert, a light NV Bruno Paillard Brut Premier Rosé perfectly introduces our Thinly Sliced Apple Tart with Vanilla Ice Cream or the Vanilla Cheesecake with Homemade Berry Compote.
- The final edition takes place on December 7th, where LPM’s Regional Head of Wines Gregg Lambert welcomes Jérôme Legras, Managing Director of Champagne Legras & Haas from the picturesque village of Chouilly, to guide diners through an unparalleled culinary journey where the rich, aromatic, and graceful style wines will complement the classic LPM dishes impeccably. “LPM is a synonym for the highest level of hospitality worldwide. Bringing esteemed traditional recipes to the many, respectfully, stylishly and with an outstanding wine list. Working with LPM worldwide is an honour and it is only natural that LPMs guests are the first we want to introduce Legras & Haas to”, says Jérôme Legras.
About the menu: The appetiser, Oysters with Homemade Smoked Tabasco and Crispy Quinoa, is thoughtfully paired with a glass of the delicate NV Intuition Brut. For the main course, guests can choose from two different Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru options, paired with either Grilled Cod with Chilli and Lemon Confit, Lobster Risotto with Mushrooms, Marinated Baby Chicken, or the exclusive Yoghurt Marinated Veal Chop with Sage and Anchovies.
