Kempinski Hotel Grand Arena Bansko to host a noble Russian night at the Come Prima Restaurant on Saturday 23 March
Bansko, Bulgaria, 2019-Mar-18 — /Travel PR News/ — Kempinski Hotel Grand Arena Bansko will surprise gourmet lovers with a noble Russian night at the Come Prima Restaurant on Saturday 23 March. The event is part of the hotel’s new culinary tradition – organising thematic evenings devoted to various national cuisines. The Russian evening will be the eighth in a row, after those that have attracted a tremendous interest so far: One night in Tuscany, French Wine Evening, Spanish Gourmet Evening, Swiss Racket Night, One Night in Sardinia, Seafood and La Skolka Night and Bulgarian Night.
The exclusive Russian menu is influenced by the current new trend in Russian cuisine, using old, original recipes prepared with a modern technique. The exquisite five-course menu is a mix of classic Russian ingredients and flavour combinations, but cooked and served in a very elegant gourmet style. The culinary journey will start with traditional Russian seafood specialities – oysters in vinaigrette, Sakhalin scallops gratin, pancakes and caviar tapas. The temptation continues with a delicacy of beetroot with buckwheat and Circassian cheese mousse, followed by an appetising veal in own sauce with porcini and apples. The main dish includes a delicious Hunters Duck, while for dessert, guests will have the opportunity to taste the cake that is as airy as a ballerina and as delicious as a kiss: the cake Anna Pavlova. The cake was created in honour of the legendary Russian prima ballerina that has remained in history as the first ballerina to tour ballet around the world. The dessert is believed to have been created in honour of the dancer either during or after one of her tours to Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s and both countries are still arguing about the authorship of the recipe. Whoever the original creator of the delicious dessert is, there is no question that the reminiscent beauty of the dance dessert is extremely impressive not only in appearance but also in taste.
And as we will be serving Russian food then of course we have thought about a traditional Russian drink as well. Yes, we have the best vodka this night – the legendary Russian vodka Legend of Kremlin. But inhabitants of palaces in Russia often preferred a true aristocratic beverage – champagne… and therefore we have added to all meals a glass of the high-quality champagne Billecart-Salmon, provided with the kind support of the long-term partner and friend of the hotel – the company BNK, which is a leader in the local market and the importer of the most valuable alcohol brands in Europe.
The champagne is born out of the love of Nicholas François Billecart and his wife, Elizabeth Salmon, who in 1818, founded their own champagne house in the Champagne region in France. Over the years, the Billecart family has remained faithful to the tradition and passion for champagne. Today, the company is run by Mathieu Roland-Billecart, a seventh-generation successor, and continues to produce finesse and balanced champagnes with exclusive fermentation techniques at very low temperatures and long ageing on fine lees in a bottle. The champagne has a 200-year history and is deservedly one of the most famous and preferred all over the world.
