Italian fine-dining restaurant Marea will host a one-time festive celebration on 18th December 2019.  Known for its fabulous weekly jazz nights the restaurant, which is part of the Altamarea Group, founded by Chef Michael White, will take things to the next level with a festive jazz evening this week.

Indulge in the best of luxury Italian cuisine whilst relaxing to the soulful jazz hits and Christmas tunes sung by international vocalist Claudia Patrice.

 

For the occasion, there will be some specially created festive dishes on offer as well as all the usual menu favourite. For starter choose from delicious seafood options including the refreshing Orata (sea bream, buckwheat Panzanella, castelvetrano olives). Or if that’s not your thing the Astice which consists of lobster, cream of burrata, eggplant and basil is a must-try. This dish has become one of the eatery’s cult dishes and we know why!

 

 

When it comes to the second course you can’t visit Marea without tasting the hand-rolled pasta. Try the Garganelli dish which consists of black trumpet mushrooms, black truffle and Parmigiano, or the Fusilli with braised baby octopus, tomato and bone marrow is one of our personal favourites. If you’re really feeling hungry be sure to samples the Banzino – a whole salt-baked sea bass for two – the perfect way to ring in the holidays!

 

Of course, no visit is complete without dessert and Marea does it best. Choose from a selection of homemade traditional Italian offerings.

 

 

The Jazz After Dark Festive Edition takes place on Wednesday 18th December from 7pm. Located at Gate Village 7, DIFC, Dubai.
