Fine Dining Lovers: S.

Pellegrino and Silvana Finest Quality Arabica Coffee

You are 23 with a broad barrel chest and sallow-coloured skin. You are an aggressive man who takes out his problems on others. You are a recent graduate who can't find employment, so you are claiming benefits. Sound like you? The world's most famous chefs can help you eat your way to a job; and great skin. Step back in time for a remedial menu focused on balancing the four humours (black bile, blood, yellow bile and phlegm) here. Or, if food therapy takes your fancy, you might also be partial to a philosophical take on humble ravioli. If, according to a famous starred Italian chef Massimo Bottura, The raviolo is the container of ideas to express emotions, does spinach and ricotta signal fragility, or some similarly delicate state of mind? Before you dismiss the emotional aspects of food, consider that foie gras, the culinary emblem of fine dining, is technically offal. Whilst many people revile at offal and associate it with poverty (both economic and aesthetic), they eagerly acknowledge the superiority of foie gras. Indeed, Most unknowing eaters lick their lips with delight after having eaten them, but only when nobody has told them exactly what they are eating. In case you hadn't guessed, offal-fear is really about distaste for parts of the body considered unclean in the Western cultural imaginary and many famous chefs are now embracing its refined flavours, textures and taste. If you want to know more about fine dining from the labyrinthine minds of the world's most famous chefs, and the almost famous ones too, S.Pellegrino's day-by-day digest is your little online gallery of tout de suite culinary wisdom. We are pleased to share this piecemeal foodie chronicle because four decades of experience with fine dining establishments in Australia has taught us the importance of sharing our passions as well as consuming them!

S.Pellegrino Fine Dining Lovers

As long as we have been involved with the culinary innovations taking place in Western Australia, we have been aware that the best accompaniment to food is wine, and the best accompaniment to wine and food is San Pellegrino and Acqua Panna water. S.Pellegrino is not just a premium quality water but it also has something of a cult status. What makes it unique is that its fashionable status has endured over decades and its purity remains true to the source. This is why we have continued to supply S.Pellegrino to Western Australia's finest and up-and-coming establishments for decades.

S.Pellegrino sparkling water is poured in the world's finest dining establishments. However, the link between fine dining and S.Pellegrino doesn't just happen on the floor. S.Pellegrino's 50 best restaurants is a list respected around the world. Its online day-by-day gallery of articles for fine dining lovers offers gourmet-size morsels of food writing that is among the best currently available on the web. Interested readers can subscribe to receive a daily, exquisitely presented article as food for your creativity and culinary knowledge. Articles are rich in content, elegantly composed, and short enough to keep you satiated without blowing out your time budget. They cover the latest in avant garde fine dining as it intersects with gastronomic history, food geography, fine art, economics, photography and fashion: the thinking person's culinary chronicle. As suppliers to Western Australia's most up-and-coming and established fine dining restaurants, we understand that restaurants become popular not just because of quality, but because of the signature they put on their establishment from location to ambience, aesthetic style and commitment to concept. We also know that a meal accompanied by S.Pellegrino sparkling water, or Acqua Panna mineral water, must end with a balancing, harmonious cup of coffee.

Silvana Finest Quality Arabica Coffee

Silvana Finest Quality Arabica Coffee, like S.Pellegrino, is the first choice of Western Australia's finest dining establishments. Those who love fine food also appreciate coffee that is delicate, rich, aromatic and textural. Silvana has been roasted at European Foods in Northbridge since the late 1980s, but has recently undergone something of a renaissance. Silvana Originale has long been the choice of fine dining establishments, but in 2004 Silvana Exclusive was developed as a sweet, bright blend trending toward small bars serving espressotini and discerning clientele. More recently, the vengefully dark chocolate and cocoa profile of award winning Silvana Gran Caffe has earned a reputation as the first and only choice of gourmands. This chef-centric blend has a complex flavour profile that is cupped by our team week to week to ensure the integrity of the flavour profile, which leaves us just a little weak-kneed cup to cup. At European Foods, our appreciation of fine coffee and fine mineral water goes full circle. All our coffee cupping sessions, plus experimentation with brewing methods such as the siphon and cold press, are done with Acqua Panna. Just as Acqua Panna is the ideal palate cleansing water for wine tasting, it is ideal for coffee profiling. Its subtle, delicate mineral matrix has zero hardness or harshness that would otherwise taint taste and aroma. As Silvana enters fine dining establishments on the basis of its quality and taste, its inception and taste is never entirely dissoluble from S.Pellegrino and Acqua Panna waters. To find out more about Silvana Finest Quality Arabica Coffee, the chef's choice, watch it brewed by our Head Barista Rie Loy on our recently acquired La Marzocco Strada EP.
