An extraordinary year is coming to an end, and at La Gattabuia, we want to celebrate the arrival of 2025 in the best way we know: with a special menu designed to offer you an unforgettable evening. Are you ready to enjoy a unique culinary experience, immersed in the magical atmosphere of New Year’s Eve in Matera?
Our New Year’s Eve dinner will be a tribute to authentic and refined flavors, with dishes that blend tradition and innovation. We will welcome you with our signature starter: a selection of homemade bread served with extra virgin olive oil and butter, a delightful beginning for your palate.
Be enchanted by our sea bass sashimi, enhanced with citrus notes of orange, fresh fava beans, and chicory, offering a fresh and sophisticated balance of flavors. Next, indulge in a terrine of sweet potatoes, enriched with a smoked potato mousse and the unmistakable touch of turnip tops, a starter that celebrates our local heritage.
A Burst of Creativity for Your New Year’s Eve in Matera
Continue your journey with our “Omega 5 Risotto,” a masterpiece that captures the essence of the sea: pink shrimp, mussels, clams, cuttlefish, tuna bottarga, and a delicate hint of lemon. Alternatively, savor the stuffed ziti with pezzente sausage, complemented by cardoncelli mushrooms, smoked provola water, and a hint of fennel oil.
For the main course, the “Pignata” takes you straight to the heart of Lucanian cuisine: braised lamb in wine, served with a buffalo butter potato mousse, sautéed chicory, and confit tomatoes. A dish that elegantly tells the story of Matera’s gastronomy.
A Sweet Farewell and Midnight Traditions
To conclude, our 64% dark chocolate lingot offers a unique sensory experience, paired with a black legume crapiata, thyme-infused pear gel, and panettone ice cream. At midnight, as tradition dictates, we’ll share lentils and panettone, wishing you a year filled with luck and happiness.
The evening will begin at 8:30 PM, and the menu is priced at €130.00 (beverages excluded). Don’t wait until the last moment: many have already booked, and availability is quickly running out. Contact us at +39 0835 256510 or fill out the form in the contacts section of our website.
