Alta Badia Launches ‘Slope Food’
Alta Badia Launches ‘Slope Food’
Published : 07-Oct-2012 07:03
Italy's Alta Badia region in the spectacular scenery of the Dolomites, a UNESCO world heritage site has built a reputation over recent years for the great cuisine served both in its hotels and restaurants as well as on the ski slopes. This reputation is centred on a group of Michelin starred chefs working in the area and known collectively as the DoloMitici.
The latest idea for the coming winter is 'Slope Food'. This is to be a very special version of the famous finger food or street food, this array of tempting treats which will be created by a group of culinary experts, including Michelin-starred Italian chefs to up-and-coming young stars, in twelve locations on the slopes of Alta Badia throughout winter.
Each chef will create Slope Food for their chosen location, including the DoloMitici and many others including chefs from around Europe. Norbert Niederkofler, of St Hubertus restaurant, which boasts two Michelin stars, will play host at the Bioch Refuge. Arturo Spicocchi, of the Michelin-starred La Stüa de Michil, will create for I Tablá refuge, and Fabio Cucchelli, of the Michelin-starred La Siriola, will be at the Ciampai Refuge for the first time.
As these tasty creations are designed to accompany aperitifs, the wine pairing is very important and the snacks will be served with the finest wines from South Tyrol, suggested by the chefs themselves together with the best sommeliers from South Tyrol.
