Shinsegae Food Launches New Healthy Mediterranean Menu at Beckia Enubo

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Seon-ae] Shinsegae Food, which operates the premium Italian restaurant ‘Vecchia e Nuovo,’ announced on the 14th that it has newly introduced eight Mediterranean-style healthy new menu items using fresh ingredients such as avocado, olives, and tomatoes.

The eight new menu items at Vecchia e Nuovo consist of salads, pasta, platters, sandwiches, and cleanse juices that richly capture the flavors and colors of the Sorrento region cuisine in Italy. In particular, these Mediterranean dishes use healthy vegetables like avocado, tomato, and olives, which are good for vitamin supplementation, as well as fresh ingredients such as burrata cheese and calamari, making them perfect for refreshing the palate and adding lightness during the hot summer season.

Key menu items include the ‘Sorrento Platter,’ where you can enjoy representative ingredients from the Sorrento area such as tomato, olive, avocado, and burrata cheese with tapenade bread; the ‘Grilled Calamari Salad,’ a tangy and savory salad made by mixing grilled squid and fennel herbs with chimichurri sauce; and ‘Linguine Puttanesca,’ a spicy traditional pasta from southern Italy served with tomato, anchovies, and capers.

Additionally, two cleanse juices have been launched: ‘Green Grape,’ made by juicing kale, apple, green grape, and ginger; and ‘Yellow Jujube Tomato,’ made by juicing yellow cherry tomatoes, orange, carrot, and basil. These eight new menu items are available at four locations: Shinsegae Department Store Gangnam Branch, Main Branch 4th floor, Main Branch basement, and Hanam Branch.

To celebrate the launch of the new menu, Shinsegae Food is running a promotion until August 31, offering a set menu composed of the Grilled Calamari Salad and one of the three new pasta dishes at a discounted price of 39,000 KRW, approximately 12% off.

A Shinsegae Food representative said, “With customers’ growing interest in health and immune system enhancement, we have launched Mediterranean-style new menu items that are gaining worldwide recognition as a well-being diet. We hope you enjoy these dishes at Vecchia e Nuovo to refresh your appetite and take care of your health during the summer.”
