Experience the best that luxury has to offer at Gotti, which is offering an exclusive truffle and wine dinner on May 4. Black truffle reigns supreme here, infused in a truffle mash alongside an exquisite Wagyu carpaccio as the first course, then shaved over seasonal Holland white asparagus, prosciutto di parma and gorgonzola in the next course. Save space for the wild forest mushroom risotto, swimming in a truffle cream sauce that astonishes with its rich burst of umami. 

The experience is elevated with a curation of Tuscan wines, complementing the bold flavours of the truffle. The Montecalvi San Piero IGT Toscano 2016, for instance, is a bracingly tannic and bold red to complement the Australian grain-fed beef tenderloin, with a savoury Diane sauce, endive, and potato grata. A rich Pietro Zardini - Recioto della Valpolicella Classico 2020 pairs perfectly with the equally decadent chocolate lava cake, drizzled with chocolate syrup and sprinkled with pistachios and berries.

Celebrate the best of what spring has to offer at Da Paolo Dempsey Restaurant & Bar, which is offering a special white asparagus menu. Until May 31, feast on four à-la carte dishes like the poached white asparagus served with prosciutto di San Daniele. The poached asparagus leaves a clean base for the fruity and toasty notes of the prosciutto, while the accompanying sous vide egg and lemon butter sauce add a touch of creaminess and acidity to the ensemble.

Don’t miss out on its famous wood-fired pizzas, which sees coppa (cured pork), taleggio cheese, mozzarella, roasted Idaho potatoes, and scallions topping a Naples-style pizza that will satisfy your pizza craving. The white asparagus risotto is not to be missed either; it’s served with onion confit and topped with toasted hazelnuts and grated caciocavallo cheese (one of the most prized cheeses in the world). It’s creamy, sharp and slightly spicy, making sure you’ll have an indulgent time at Da Paolo Dempsey Restaurant & Bar.
