In a nostalgic reverie, Barfly invites guests to reminisce about the inception of love, transporting them on a captivating journey back to where their hearts first intertwined.
Barfly’s Valentine’s menu skilfully captures the essence of a blossoming romance to capture those cherished moments, presenting a culinary snapshot that beautifully encapsulates the evolution of love. The menu centres around a sharing experience- to replicate the sharing of memories for a couple in love.
The narrative unfolds with a spellbinding “First Sight,” immediately seizing guests’ attention through exquisitely adorned bite-sized delights. These culinary creations aim to evoke a moment of profound reflection. With the very first delectable morsel, this carefully curated representation of the inaugural shared experience will kindle the perfect start to a romantic evening.
Options include the tantalizing Aji Amarillo croquette with kalamata sauce, the indulgent King Crab, and the succulent Wagyu Nigiri featuring Lomo sauce, cured egg yolk, and a nori coriander cracker. Additionally, the menu boasts the exquisite Roasted Beetroot with vegan béarnaise blanc and coriander oil, offering a symphony of flavours.
Following the enchanting “First Sight” experience, the culinary journey seamlessly transitions into the “Ice Breaker,” the second highlight on the menu. This course draws inspiration from the pivotal phase in a relationship where initial awkwardness and fluster gradually give way to a moment of pure comfort and connection between couples. This course involves handheld items such as Tuna Tataki, ponzu caviar, shiso leaves, mint, crispy garlic, and Josper chicken bao, hoisin sauce, pickled cucumber, wasabi mayo, finally, papas brava, smoked pepper sauce, and furikake.
The focal point of the experience endeavours to artfully embody the profound and intense emotions shared between a couple. To narrate this compelling tale, Barfly employs dishes infused with deep and rich flavours and robust character, creating a culinary symphony that resonates with the depth of the couple’s connection. Couples can share the Ox Tail gochujang ravioli in a yuzu butter sauce with ito togarashi. Other choices include the Black Cod topped with gochujang chupe sauce and a side of pumpkin pure and torched grapefruit or the Creamy corn pepian with grilled portobellos in chimichurri sauce.
Concluding this journey with a touch of brilliance, the menu crescendos to the sweet satisfaction that comes with the realization of finding a perfect soulmate and life partner. The pièce de résistance: a composition of rose, strawberry, and rhubarb. The dessert consists of delicate layers of strawberry mousse, a luscious rhubarb compote, and a caramel dome, all crowned with a refreshing rose water granita. This culinary is a harmonious finale to an evening of exquisite flavours and shared moments.
With this delectable menu and an impressive rooftop location, share a kiss overlooking the beautiful Dubai skyline. This Valentine’s Day, celebrate the history of your relationships and make new memories with Barfly.
