LOONA Introduces Interactive La Fortuna Ravioli Dining Concept
There is something about an Italian table that makes you want to stay a little longer. At LOONA, that feeling comes through in food made with good ingredients, recipes rooted in tradition and dishes designed to be enjoyed together.
A Little Luck, A Lot of Italy: LOONA Introduces La Fortuna Ravioli Alongside a New Menu and Breakfast Offering
The day at LOONA begins with Mamma Mia, its breakfast offering served from 9am to 12pm. Designed for those who believe breakfast should never be rushed, the menu brings together familiar favourites alongside new additions including ricotta dumplings with cherry, Caprese omelette, cauliflower fritters with red caviar and more. For those who prefer a later start, six of Mamma Mia’s bestsellers remain available until 6pm, making it possible to enjoy breakfast favourites well into the afternoon.
That same sense of warmth and tradition carries through the wider menu, bringing the flavours of Italy to the table through fresh pasta, seafood, pizza and familiar classics. The kitchen works with 24-month-aged Parmigiano Reggiano, several types of Caputo flour, organic eggs, Lorenzo extra virgin olive oil and Sicilian Nocellara del Belice olives, keeping quality ingredients at the heart of every dish.
Among the specials are sweet tomatoes with stracciatella, pappardelle with duck, potato ravioli with beef ragù and calamarata with beef polpette, alongside a selection of fresh seafood, crudo, handmade pasta and risotto. A particular highlight is LOONA’s Italian-style sushi, a delicate and distinctive take on the classic, served without rice and instead presented on a bed of fresh crab. Incredibly fresh and refined, it brings together the delicate flavours of the sea with LOONA’s Italian sensibility.
Then comes La Fortuna Ravioli, a little tradition designed to make the meal even more memorable.
Inspired by the Head Chef’s Italian heritage, La Fortuna Ravioli takes its cue from a family tradition passed down by his grandfather, who would create a similar concept for his family. What was once a small ritual around the family table has now found a new home at LOONA, bringing a piece of that story to Dubai and giving guests the chance to experience it for themselves.
The idea is simple. At the end of the meal, guests will find a special ravioli waiting for them. Open it, and inside is a surprise revealing what they have won, with every table guaranteed to be a winner.
At its heart, La Fortuna Ravioli is about what LOONA does best, bringing people together over food, with a little generosity, a little tradition and plenty of reasons to stay for one more dish. Because sometimes, the best part of an Italian meal is not knowing exactly what you’ll find until you open the ravioli.
