OHLALA Spotlight

States cooked up a storm in the kitchen alongside Brian Becher, Executive Chef, Wolfgang Puck restaurants at Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay.

The pop-up served Puck’s signature creative California fare, paired with a complimentary matured grape list. Diners were furthermore invited to embark on a nine-course culinary journey encompassing handmade pastas, fresh seafood, all-natural meats, and an array of tempting desserts. Highlights included goat ricotta gnocchi, prepared using freshly made goat ricotta, medjool dates, toasted pistachio and wild field mushrooms; beluga caviar served with market cauliflower hummus, black lemon blini and lamb belly macaron; and steamed wild black sea bass with beet-ginger ponzu, edamame and wasabi tobiko. These were just a few of the mouthwatering dishes guests experienced as part of the extensive tasting menu.

Spago Chef Tetsu Yahagi said: “I am very excited to cook in Bahrain because I will have a great opportunity to introduce our Spago Beverly Hills cooking style to guests in Bahrain. As a chef of multicultural Californian cuisine, there is nothing more exciting than working with new ingredients, meeting local people and being exposed to different cultures. It is an honour to collaborate with the talented Chef Brian to make the event successful!”

Brian Becher, Executive Chef, Wolfgang Puck restaurants at Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay, added: “Spago is considered one of the world’s top restaurants, and I’m extremely grateful for the chance to work alongside Chef Tetsu. It’s always a pleasure to welcome gifted craftsmen into the Four Seasons kitchen, and share knowledge and fresh ideas in pursuit of culinary excellence.”

Four Seasons has a long established relationship with Wolfgang Puck, who operates two restaurant franchises within Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay, together with many more at other Four Seasons properties around the world.

The Spago pop-up hosted at CUT by Wolfgang Puck, Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay was truly unmissable culinary experience.
