White Asparagus Season

A treasured ingredient of the spring season takes centre stage at ALATi as Executive Chef Phillip Taylor presents a special menu dedicated to white asparagus. Known for its delicate sweetness and refined texture, white asparagus is celebrated across Europe for its elegant flavour and limited seasonal availability.

At ALATi, ingredient selection is guided by respect for nature, seasonality and responsible farming, choosing produce that reflects both quality and integrity.

This philosophy is reflected in the white asparagus sourced from Golden Hills Farm in Nong Bua Lamphu in Northeast Thailand. The farm was founded by a German–Thai couple who longed for the taste of white asparagus from home and set out to cultivate it in Thailand. Growing this delicate vegetable in a tropical climate is far from simple, yet through patience, careful farming and dedication to the land, they succeeded in producing asparagus with a gentle sweetness and refined character.

Chef Phillip prepares the asparagus with a restrained touch, allowing its natural flavour to remain the focus. Using ALATi’s signature Grill, Fire and Smoke techniques, the asparagus is gently kissed by flame to enhance its subtle sweetness while adding depth and aroma.

The seasonal menu features thoughtfully composed dishes, beginning with a velvety white asparagus soup that showcases the ingredient in its purest form. It continues with house-smoked Norwegian salmon with poached egg, sauce Hollandaise and fresh garden peas, grilled maitake mushrooms, grilled Hokkaido scallops and savoury Iberico crumble.

The White Asparagus experience reflects ALATi’s culinary philosophy – honouring ingredients grown with care and transforming them through thoughtful technique into dishes that connect soil to soul.
