Aldo’s
The name was inspired by a wine themed painting,
“An evening at The Ritz” by post impressionist artist Aldo Luango.
Our table had a view of the sky train turning the
corner gliding through the trees at the intersection of Sathorn Road and
Narathiwat Rachanakarin Road. A pre-dinner glass of beautifully fresh St
Clemence, Vicar’s Choice Sauvignon Blanc was served.
To start delicious perfectly cooked ‘foie gras on a
bed of kiwi fruit and poached strawberry’, it melted in the mouth.
Jaruwan Kaset, the wine bar supervisor paired it with a Moletto Pinot
Grigio that worked well.
A party of three, each ordering different meats of
‘trout’, ‘sea bass’ and ‘lamb’ posed a challenge with wine pairing,
however, the recommendation of Bundies Patch Shiraz worked equally well
with all three dishes.
For dessert ‘green apple crème brulee’ and the
great flavour combination of ‘fig and ginger ice-cream’. This was a
delightfully balanced dining experience.
