V-ZUG at Milan Design Week 2025 – the flavours

For this year’s Milan Design Week, a sculptural dining table conceived by Elisa Ossino sets the stage for carefully plated culinary delights from V-ZUG’s Gourmet Academy.  Delicate bites – in green, purple, black and white – reveal how pairing contrasting textures like crunch with cream or bold flavours like tangy citrus with earthy spices can transform ordinary ingredients into an extraordinary experience. Bring the V-ZUG Milan flavours to your home and create a colourful aperitif for your guests.

  • Japanese toast with barley grass and chive and ricotta cream

    Japanese toast complemented by the green freshness of barley grass. Crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, it is served with an intense chive and ricotta cream and microgreens – a harmonious interplay of green on green.

  • Purple bao buns with curry mayonnaise

    Black carrot juice gives these bao buns their unusual colour and delicate flavour. The intense, delicately purple curry mayonnaise adds flavour and accents of colour, while the aromatic Asian filling made from red cabbage, tofu and purple carrot rounds off the colour palette perfectly.
