          FROM FARM TO PREGO


          AT THE WESTIN GURGAON







              rego is all about clean-eating, sustainable
              produce and farm-to-fork, the new mantra of
          Phealthy eating. All the fruits and vegetables used
          at Prego such as mushrooms, tomato, asparagus,
          lettuce, broccoli, etc. are freshly sourced from nearby
          farms within a 20-mile radius, including the on-ground
          farms at the sister hotel, The Westin Sohna Resort and
          Spa.
           The fresh produce used has a significantly lower
          carbon footprint since the produce is local, seasonal
          and harvested directly from the farms, as per the
          demand. It incorporates food freshness, safety,
          seasonality, and sustainability, as these farmers are
          mindful of crop rotation, soil nutrition, and zero waste.
           Marco Murenu, expat Italian Chef de Cuisine at
          Prego, brings his exclusive gourmet experience from
          the island of Sardinia, which also happens to be his
          hometown. Sardinian food is simple, fresh and
          scrumptious as it uses a lot of organic ingredients.
           Marco is a staunch believer in working with fresh
          produce and resonates that a simple dish gets a
          flavourful facelift when you have fresh ingredients.
          Even the cheeses used in Prego – mozzarella, burrata,
          ricotta and mascarpone – are locally sourced artisanal
          cheeses promoting Indian cheese making.

          Must try: Salads such as king prawns pickled salad,
          bell pepper ripieno, carpaccio di salmone affumicato;
          signature mains such as eggplant parmigiana,
          Sardinian Ravioloni and classic Italian desserts such as
          tiramisu and yoghurt and Blueberry Tortino.
