Casanova: the gourmet restaurant of Costa Firenze
Wonder if you’ve ever experienced a gourmet menu aboard a cruise ship?
Definitely one of the things I recommend you do on your next cruise. On the Costa Firenze you can experience the best of Italian and international gastronomic tradition at the Casanova Restaurant. An evening you will surely remember and something absolutely new on board Costa Cruises ships.
In a refined location with attention to detail and service you can taste the dishes of 3-star chefs: Bruno Barbieri, ambassador of Italian cuisine in the world, the French chef Hélène Darroze, winner of 5 Michelin stars and the Spanish Angel Leon, judge of Masterchef Spain and winner of 3 Michelin stars.
3 MENUS TO DELIGHT AND AMAZE
Thanks to the skill and imagination of these 3 famous chefs, you can choose from 3 different menus, representing 3 culinary paths, consisting of 5 refined dishes, designed to delight anyone who wants to try them.
Bruno Barbieri will offer you dishes made in Italy, interpreted by a “globetrotting” chef who has discovered his love for cooking on cruise ships, studying his recipes with great attention to sustainability. Let yourself be surprised by his most flavorful and colorful dishes such as lobster salad with peaches and vegetable flowers … and to end on a sweet note, Chef Bruno’s Creme caramel will not disappoint you.
If you love fish dishes, with delicate flavors and at the same time innovative, I recommend you try the menu of Helene Darroze, interpreter of an authentic cuisine, but at the same time creative. Her signature dish “Gazpacho aux pimiento del Piquillo” will leave you enraptured!
For those who are always looking for new tastes and dishes to discover, the menu proposed by chef Angel Leon, will make your taste buds travel. The “chef of the sea”, always puts the sea at the center of everything. His accurate menus are wrapped by the intense marine flavor, where Leon wanted to make the protagonist a whole new ingredient: the plankton. Among his most appreciated dishes there is in fact the plankton rice together with the delicate cream of sea urchins.
LOCATION OF OTHER TIMES
The dishes will make you travel with their scents, their colors and the feelings that will leave your palate, because you know that the dish is not only taste, but also the eye wants its part … In fact, Casanova is ready to host you with a location of yesteryear, elegant and attention to every detail thanks to the impeccable service of the staff.
