PASTA WEEK: EMBARK ON A FLAVOURSOME CULINARY VOYAGE AT NOI

Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, ngày 9 tháng 11 năm 2026

From November 9 to 22, 2026, NOI restaurant located on Level 3 of the Union Square - presents Pasta Week, an exclusive culinary journey celebrating the spirit of "A Celebration of Us". Taking inspiration from its name "NOI", which means "Us" in Italian, the specially curated menu unfolds like a vessel bearing warmth and brings people closer around the dining table. Throughout this special week, NOI debuts a thoughtfully crafted pasta menu for every guest, a sensory journey that elevates the palate through rich layers of Italian flavours and unforgettable moments of togetherness.

The voyage begins with an impressive tapas duo. While the Crispy Rigatoni offers a playful crunch paired with smooth fish mousse, the Crispy Barchette strikes a delicate harmony of golden fried pasta shells, sweet fig puree, pistachios, and rich Parmesan cheese. Following right after, the Beetroot Ravioli Salad brings a refreshing rhythm ruby-pink beetroot ravioli enveloping creamy goat cheese, tossed with crisp rocket leaves, walnuts, and a gentle touch of balsamic glaze.

After a delightful start, Pasta Week at NOI leads the palate into the comforting warmth of Tortellini. Each Parmesan-stuffed dumpling rests neatly in a clear, aromatic chicken consommé laced with fresh chives. Viewed from above, the delicate tortellini resemble small boats gathered in the open sea, echoing the essence of connection around the table.

The journey hits its crescendo as NOI captures the breezy, coastal energy in its first main course Squid Ink Spaghetti. Glistering black ink strands meet savoury stuffed squid, enriched by a luxurious Bagna Cauda sauce and brightened by pistachios and parsley oil. This rich, oceanic depth is gently refreshed with a palate-cleansing Lemon & Basil Sorbet, a cool interlude of lemon, basil, olive oil, and a splash of Limoncello before steering toward the next highlight.

The rich tapestry of Italian culinary heritage continues with Pappardelle, where wide ribbons of pasta cling to a slow-braised beef and pork ragù. It is closely followed by Spinach Casoncelli vibrant green pasta dough crafted with spinach and folded like tiny sails that cradle their filling over a silky yellow tomato sauce base. If the early-course Tortellini symbolized setting sail into the open sea, the Spinach Casoncelli serves as a peaceful harbour, bringing this pasta exploration to a satisfying full circle.

A sweet crescendo marks the conclusion of Pasta Week with the Mont Blanc. Inspired by the iconic snow-capped peak, this dessert fuses the rich, earthy notes of chestnuts with the crisp lightness of cacao meringue, leaving an elegant and velvety finish on the palate.

Far beyond a curated tasting menu, Pasta Week at NOI serves as a subtle thread of togetherness. Whether it is an intimate date night, a relaxed dinner after a busy workday, or an impromptu gathering that stretches into endless conversations every pasta creation at NOI naturally draws people closer together.
