Are you bored with pairing food with wine? Then how about pairing it with spirits instead?
Get ready to be spirited away with the latest collaboration between Maria’s SteakCafe and premium spirits purveyor Wholly Spirits, which will pair five courses of Maria’s signature dishes with a specially curated selection of premium spirits in one exquisite dinner. The exclusive pairing dinner event, which will take place on October 20th, 2023 at 7pm, will be available only at Maria’s SteakCafe’s latest venue, the breathtaking SkyForest on the top floor of 1 POWERHOUSE at Bandar Utama.
Combining the culinary expertise of Maria’s SteakCafe with the spirits know-how of Wholly Spirits, this event promises to be a delightful journey with an atmosphere of indulgence and celebration. Each course has been thoughtfully paired with a handpicked beverage, thus creating a symphony of flavours that will tantalize your senses.
The evening begins with a delightful appetizer of U.S. Scallops paired with the ultra-premium Isle of Harris Gin. The tender scallops are seared to perfection, and complemented by a bright tomato salsa. The gin’s unique botanicals, inspired by the Scottish island’s maritime environment, allow it to cut through the scallops’ richness, offering a refreshing and aromatic note for a harmonious fusion.
After that, comes Maria’s SteakCafe’s signature mains, starting off with the beloved classic Seafood Aglio Olio, perfectly paired with the steakhouse’s signature Sesame Sour cocktail. This is followed by the New Zealand Lamb Cutlet, a savoury delight that dances in harmony with the rich and complex Redbreast Lustau Irish Whiskey. Then, comes the Australian Wagyu Ribeye MB7, paired with the distinctly fruity and bright notes of the Ardamurchan AD/10.22 Madeira Cask Scotch Whisky. Together, they create a sensuous blend of flavours, with the stunning Madeira-influenced single malt further highlighting the tender, juicy richness of the meat.
But the journey of indulgence doesn’t stop here. For dessert, diners will be served the signature Prune Cake, made with a closely guarded secret recipe created by Maria herself. This delectable treat is artfully paired with the Samai Kampot Pepper Rum, creating a combination that will surely satisfy your sweet tooth.
