La Pergola at Rome Cavalieri Waldorf Astoria, Italy
Every dish is a vision; as every recipe is the result of a meticulous analysis of every detail and of every aspect. Share
A breathtaking view of the Eternal City is revealed to guests at one of the world’s most beautiful restaurants. Under the guidance of Heinz Beck it has become a temple of international gastronomy. Its one-of-a-kind cuisine, is a fusion of genius and creativity; from the absolute quality of simply unique ingredients, it continues to set forth new tastes and new emotions coaxed from the real flavours of Italian and Mediterranean tradition.
The scents and colours of nature, without excess; a constant search for balance as the foundation of food made of lightness. With particular attention to the modern and a challenge to originality, with coherence towards principles, without compromise.
Oenophiles throw up their arms with joy when they see the work of affable Chef Sommelier, Marco Reitano, who has curated two extraordinary wine lists, one from around the world and another exclusively Italian.
There is no question he will find the perfect pairing to complete an extraordinary dining experience. An enviable selection is defined by such rarities as 1922 Chateau Lafite Rothschild and 1945 Pétrus.
Like the Rome Cavalieri’s art collection, Marco Reitano’s Italian list showcases some of the finest creativity in the country. It is so comprehensive there are no less than 34 wines from eminent Gaja Barbaresco as well as a virtual chapter on Brunello. Prepare to be stunned.
