A Gourmet Getaway at The Nautilus Maldives
From November 23rd to 25th, 2024, The Nautilus Maldives opens its doors to a feast for the senses. This exclusive culinary event, led by renowned Swiss chef Pietro Catalano of the prestigious CAAA restaurant, brings together passion, family, and the finest dishes. Known for his dedication to crafting exceptional dishes, Chef Pietro will guide you through a three-day celebration of culinary artistry that promises to be unforgettable.
The Rich Flavours of Maldivian Tuna
At the heart of this culinary event is Maldivian tuna, which has a deep cultural and economic significance in the Maldives. Sourced across the country using one of the most sustainable practices of pole-and-line fishing, it plays a significant role in Maldivian heritage. The event shines a light on these rich traditions while giving you a chance to truly indulge in Maldivian Yellowfin Tuna.
Chef Pietro Catalano, inspired by the quality and versatility of the tuna, shares his enthusiasm: "The exceptional quality of Maldivian yellowfin tuna, celebrated for its rich flavour, firm texture, and versatility, has always been a source of inspiration and a catalyst for my creativity. Its adaptability allows endless possibilities for culinary expression, enabling me to showcase my creativity, from simple, elegant preparations to highly refined techniques."
The event's two exclusive menus at Zeytoun will focus on tuna, highlighting its rich taste while championing sustainability. Through dishes, both simple and sophisticated, this culinary adventure will showcase the fish's unique qualities, prepared in ways that respect both its natural flavour and its cultural significance.
A Perfect Pairing with Zero-Waste Mixology
Adding to the event's magic, sommelier Stefania Catalano and mixologist Elena Catalano will introduce a bespoke cocktail menu, specially designed to complement the featured dishes. Using zero-waste mixology techniques, the drinks blend Mediterranean, Alpine, and Maldivian influences, crafting a unique sensory experience. These cocktails will complement gourmet snacks at The Nautilus Rising, a beach pop-up displaying the serene ambience of the Maldives.
