| 22.07.2003 The festival of Super Tuscan wines |
There is no specific definition (or standard) for Super Tuscan wines. It is nigh impossible to classify the surprising combination of many years of experience and absolute freedom of the Tuscan oenologists. Grape varieties, soil, yield, peculiarities of fermentation and maturation etc etc... all these factors are just a small part of the unknown and complicated equation which result in these brilliant wines.

| 20.11.2001 New Chef |
 Pantagruel introduces new Chef — Costa Passalacqua whose biography
looks quite promising for Kiev"s gourmets: within last 5 years Costa
showed his culinary talents in San Francisco, London and Tokyo.
Preceding international experience there were 20 years of learning how
to cook and cooking in his native town Lerici on Ligurian coast of
Italian Riviera. From ancient times Liguria has been famous for its
recipes of pesto sauce, torta pasqualina, lots of dishes with "frutti
di mare". However, our new Chef is not willing to focus on Ligurian
recipes only, but rather on Mediterranean cuisine in general. You can
already try some of his specials: hot carpaccio, gnocchi with smoked
salmon sauce, scampi in white wine, steak with asparagus sauce — just
to name a few. The main menu is expected to be totally revised by
mid-January. |
