The iconic dish that is served in Grand Hotel’s fine dining establishment, La Terrazza Gualtiero Marchesi restaurant is the saffron risotto with golden leaf dish created by the Maestro Gualtiero Marchesi in 1981. This dish has been a staple of hotel diners for 38 years. The dish was created by the Maestro Gualtiero Marchesi who is known as the “Maestro of modern Italian cuisine.” He became the first Italian chef to win three Michelin stars; he was also the first chef from Italy to hand one back. This special risotto recipe includes common cooking ingredients such as butter, onion, and parmesan cheese, but it is known for the gold leaf that is placed on top of the risotto dish, making it not only delicious but also beautiful.
