Four Points by Sheraton, Bur Dubai, has appointed Alex Sebastianutti as head chef of its forthcoming Italian restaurant, Ricetta.

Sebastianutti brings international experience to Ricetta with a career spanning Abu Dhabi, Germany and Italy and roles ranging from chef de partie to chef de cuisine.

Sebastianutti, born in a city near Venice, has grown with the traditional cuisine of his grandmother. He has become an expert of Italian cuisine and fine dining over his 13 year career. His culinary skills have been savored in such renowned dining establishments such as Parco Ristorante Le Calandrine and Cipriani Restaurant. The polyglot chef takes delight in meeting new people, traveling and learning new cultures. He speaks Italian, English, German, Spanish and French.

“I look forward to taking guests on a palatable journey of the senses with the menu I’ve prepared for Ricetta. Italian food is absolutely international and delights diners around the globe. It will be a treat to produce exceptional meals for guests in a city as global as Dubai,” said Sebastianutti.

Ricetta’s authentic ambience is complete with tables dressed by red and white checkered tablecloths and mustard yellow walls adorned by black and white images associated with Italy. The authenticity of the experience extends into the home-cooked, fine dining meals led by Italian Head Chef, Alex Sebastianutti. Menu offerings include such appetising options as Orata alle Erbe, Ossobuco alla Milanese, Costella D’agnello and a number of vegetarian dishes. A real stone oven will cook fresh Italian pizza for the customers of Ricetta.

Four Points by Sheraton, Bur Dubai’s current dining options include Antique Bazaar, Promenade, The Viceroy and La Terrace. Ricetta, meaning “recipe” in Italian, will be the fifth addition to the historic district of Dubai property and its only setting for fine Italian cuisine. - TradeArabia News Service
