Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa welcomes Michelin-starred chef Theodor Falser to Italian fine-dining restaurant Capri Court from Friday 5 May until Wednesday 10 May 2017.
Serving an exquisite Michelin dining experience at Capri Court, Chef Theodor Falser, who has two Michelin star awards for his restaurant in Italy, is renowned for his brand of gourmet Italian cuisine using wild herbs and vegetables to create the traditional tastes and aromas from his native Italy.
The culinary highlight of Chef Theodor’s visit is on Friday 5 May with an exceptional seven course opening meal paired with a grape selection by Mr. Alessandro Vallecchi of Marchesi di Barolo Wineries.
Diners are also invited to join Chef Theodor’s extraordinary culinary journey at Capri Court, Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa’s contemporary stylish Italian restaurant located in Al Bandar, from 6 – 10 May where his sumptuous à la carte menu will feature dishes such as Omani tuna tartare, pumpkin risotto, black ink tagliolini, beef cheek ravioli, lamb osso buco, mascarpone rhubarb and camomil crumble, and grapefruit gelatine.
Speaking about the internationally renowned chef’s visit, Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa Executive Chef Shane O’Neill said: “We look forward to welcoming Chef Theodor to Capri Court as a guest chef. His innovative dishes are savoured the world over, and our guests are in for a very special treat. We are lucky to have this opportunity with such a world-class chef at Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa.”
Chef Theodor has a strong connection with Oman – his passion for food and creative signature cuisine started many years ago during his first stint working in Muscat before he moved to Kuala Lumpar to work with Shangri-La Hotels & Resorts.
He is always looking for the opportunity to add more ingenuity to his cuisine and is happy to learn and adapt from all countries where he has worked, and he now looks forward to bringing his ingenuity and culinary visions to Capri Court.
Chef Theodor’s reputation has spread from Europe to Ecuador, Bermuda, China, Malaysia, Oman and Dubai. In his native Italy, diners drive for hours to savour and relish the pioneering cuisine at his restaurant Hidalgo in Sudtirol.
Celebrating this first-class Michelin dining experience, Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa offers Omanis and the residents of Oman a luxurious opportunity enjoy Chef Theodor’s signature delights at Capri Court, starting from OMR 30++.
