Find out how to differentiate your gastronomic proposal

Did you know that there are already restaurants that offer a specific menu of Extra Virgin Olive Oil? Undoubtedly a differential value for the customer and an extra contribution to the gastronomic experience offered. Just like wine pairing, extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) also has its place in our gastronomic proposal.

Beyond a basic salad dressing, the catering sector is taking advantage of all the possibilities that EVOO offers us since, as well as being beneficial for our health, this liquid gold is capable of finishing off every mouthful and is an inexhaustible source of quality, flavour, aroma and multiple nuances.

Nowadays there are restaurants in which there is also a specific place where different EVOO options can be chosen, and there is even a person in charge of presenting this product to the diners at the table, explaining where it comes from, what variety it is, what its main attributes are and why this oil has been chosen to finish the dish.

A differentiating strategy that highlights the value of the product and the moment of presentation to the customer. A complete sensory experience that leaves no one indifferent who appreciates the richness and flavour of our gastronomy.

Each variety has its place and each dish is different. As you can imagine, you don’t use the same oil for fish as for a side dish or a salad. In the same way, within the kitchens, a specific oil is used for frying, a different variety for a raw dish or a cold cream… etc.
Each dish is unique and the flavours are enhanced by taking every detail into account!

And what about breakfast buffets in hotels? More and more establishments are offering different EVOO options, depending on intensity, proximity or variety. They also take the opportunity to inform their guests which product they are consuming, by means of special labelling or specific signs next to each bottle. In this way, the local produce is also valued and care is taken over the details that make breakfast a special and personalised moment.

At Mare Oleum we organise specific guided tours where you can enjoy a unique and different experience, test your senses and curiosity in a tasting of different varieties of EVOO, learn about the particularities of the sector and organic production and, above all, you can learn how to integrate this product into your gastronomic proposal.

Take advantage of this competitive advantage in your sector, differentiate yourself from your competition thanks to the flavour, aroma and possibilities that extra virgin olive oil can offer you.
Get ready to surprise!
