The Wonders of the Ocean: The Unveiling an Innovative Seaweed Menu.

The gorgeous new star resort in the Maldives, Nova Maldives, unveils its beautiful seaweed buffet, a genuine celebration of the marvels of the ocean. At its overwater Teppanyaki restaurant, Mizu, Nova offers an unparalleled dining experience by fusing innovation and a profound appreciation for the aquatic environment.

Amid the South Ari Atoll's crystal-clear waters and breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean, Mizu charms visitors with a blend of seafood specialties and seaweed flavours. Every painstakingly made meal symbolises a marriage of culinary prowess and a dedication to healthy, sustainable dining.

A variety of flavorful appetisers, including Temaki rolls with flying fish roe, white snapper marinated in passion fruit and green cucumber, and crispy mushroom and wake dumplings, known as Gyoza, will be served to guests before they begin their culinary trip. The umami flavours of seaweed are highlighted in the Japanese clear broth Kombu, which is served with root vegetables, tofu, and katsuobushi.

The main dishes are evidence of the culinary staff at Nova's artistry, providing a fine and enticing experience. Yaki soba noodles with hijiki, soft baby chicken, and a seaweed apple sauce are available for guests to savour. The menu offers enticing dishes like Wakame-crusted beef steak and salmon fillet folded in Yaki Nori, as well as fresh prawns drizzled with Miso-yuzu sauce and Chuka Wakame, elevating the dining experience even more.

Without a sweet conclusion, no gastronomic trip is complete. The coconut and pandan layer cake with nori and spirulina ice cream will tempt visitors' taste buds with a delightful treat.

Executive Chef Sanjeet Gopee expressed his passion for providing guests with unparalleled gastronomic experiences, stating: “At Nova, we constantly strive to push the boundaries of traditional cuisine and promote sustainability and health-conscious dining. By embracing the incredible versatility of seaweed, we not only deliver exceptional flavours but also contribute to our guests’ nutrition. Seaweed is packed with essential vitamins such as A, B, C, and E, Omega-3 fat, and minerals such as iodine, calcium, iron, zinc, and magnesium, offering numerous health benefits, including reduced inflammation, enhanced energy, support for bone health, hormonal balance, and even cancer prevention. Our guests are in for a flavorful voyage and a superfood experience. “

The sophisticated seaweed menu at Nova demonstrates the restaurant's dedication to providing visitors with unforgettable experiences by allowing them to experience the beauty of the ocean while promoting sustainable and healthy eating.
