Dining at Culina Bistro KL, with fine wine from a famous estate
Culina Bistro Kuala Lumpur recently hosted a one-night-only wine pairing dinner featuring Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite. The historic estate is recognised as one of Bordeaux's First Growths, a distinction reserved for the region's top five wine producers. A pioneer in expanding beyond traditional French terroirs, the maison established its presence in Chile in 1988 and Argentina in 1999. Located at Shoppes at Four Seasons Place Kuala Lumpur, Culina Bistro is a modern eatery that is part of the Culina in KL group of outlets, which comprises a market, bakery, wine bar, and bistro. Culina Bistro is a modern eatery that is part of the Culina in KL group of outlets. The recent dinner was part of the Culina Series – a collection of curated culinary experiences and masterclasses – and was hosted by the maison's brand ambassador Pierre-Antoine Ballan, as well as Culina's associate director of wine business development, Mathias Camilleri. Before the dinner, I spoke to Camilleri about his pairing process, and he said that while wine pairings can be very subjective, for him, the most important component to consider in a pairing is the sauce. 'When I do a pairing, I will always ask the chef if I can try the sauce, because it is the bridge between the protein and your wine, and the essence of the dish,' he said. The Culina event was hosted by the maison's brand ambassador Pierre-Antoine Ballan (left) and Camilleri. 'So, when I do a pairing, I think, 'does the sauce is lack something? Is it too strong? Is it too rich?'' he explained. 'If so, as the sommelier, you can make a choice of wine that will bring it down a little. Or if there is an element in the sauce that is really important, you can choose a wine that will enhance it instead.' It was a principle that held true during the dinner, especially with the main dishes. At Culina, Camilleri daringly paired the Ocean Trout Acqua Pazza with the excellent Los Vascos Le Dix 2018 from Colchagua Valley, Chile. The first main was Ocean Trout Acqua Pazza, a savoury bowl of umami-filled flavours that Camilleri daringly paired with the excellent Los Vascos Le Dix 2018 from Colchagua Valley, Chile, a full supple red wine with notes of berries and plums, and a maritime saltiness in the background that really brought out that seafood goodness in the dish. ../../backup/files/images/thumbs/600/2025/07/23/ Another unique one was the second main – MiGyeongSan Hanwoo Striploin. This was paired with not one, but two Argentinian wines from Bodegas Caro – Caro 2019 and Petit Caro 2021, with each wine giving different flavour sensations and experiences when paired with the decadent Hanwoo beef. The second main at the Culina dinner was paired with not one, but two Argentinian wines from Bodegas Caro. At the start, we had a pair of canapes – Fried Sushi (nori-cured ocean trout, yuzu kyosho aioli, rice cake), and Beef Skewer (MiGyeongSan outside round, ponzu) accompanied by William Fèvre Chablis 2022. We then moved on to the William Fèvre Chablis 1er Cru Montmains 2017, which Camilleri wanted to pair with a dish that would enhance the sea compounds of the Chablis. Scallop Crudo Hence, it was served together with the appetiser, Scallop Crudo, which was full of seafood umami, and brought out the maritime influences of the wine's terroir. Desserts also took a dual savoury and sweet route - led by a Cheese Board of aged cheddar, brie, blue cheese, gouda, nuts, dried fruits, followed by Poached Plums (port, thyme, mascarpone). Both were paired with a Château Duhart Milon, Moulin de Duhart, Pauillac, Bordeaux, France 2020, which provided a sensual, satisfying end to the evening.

Keylor Navas To Join UNAM Pumas After Brief Stint In Argentina With Newell's Old Boys
Ex-Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas is set to transfer to the UNAM Pumas of the Mexican league after a six-month stint in Argentina with Newell's Old Boys. The 38-year-old Navas signed a two-year deal last January with Newell's Old Boys, but he received an offer from Pumas two weeks ago. The Argentinian club on Monday said it will receive $2 million as part of the transfer deal. Pumas is yet to make an official announcement. Navas missed the first two league matches in Argentina, the first due to sickness sickness and the second because he asked to be left on the bench. 'Commitment, professionalism, and respect for the club's values are non-negotiable,' Newell's Old Boys said. 'To achieve our goals, it is essential that each member pulls in the same direction, always prioritizing the team over the individual.' Newell's, Lionel Messi's boyhood club, is based in Rosario, 300 kilometers (186 miles) northeast of Buenos Aires. Navas signed with Newell's Old Boys after finishing his second spell with Paris Saint-Germain, where he made just six appearances in all competitions. In a previous stint at PSG, he played four seasons and helped the club secure two French league titles. Navas made his professional debut with Saprissa in Costa Rica in 2005 and began his European career four years later with Albacete. He then moved to Levante and signed with Real Madrid for the 2014-15 season. With Real Madrid, Navas won a league title and a Super Cup, as well as three Champions League titles.

The Stampede of Steakhouses Continues in West Loop
is the James Beard Award-winning regional editor for Eater's Midwest region, and in charge of coverage in Chicago, Detroit, and the Twin Cities. He's a native Chicagoan and has been with Eater since 2014. Steak is just so hot right now, whether it's in a fast-casual bowl, inside a vending machine, or in the traditional sense at a formal restaurant. Trino is the latest addition to this avalanche of beef and will open Wednesday, August 6, along Randolph Street in the West Loop. Reservations are live. Chef Stephen Sandoval has been prepping for the steakhouse's debut via a series of pop-ups at Soho House Chicago. This will be Sandoval's third project in Chicago. He launched Diego in 2023 in West Town, a tiny bar serving tacos, cured seafood, and more. Sandoval remains optimistic that Entre Sueños, his ode to Baja Med cuisine, will open later this year in West Town. The delayed project remains one of Chicago's most anticipated openings of 2025. At Trino, expect live-fire cooking with Spanish and Latin influences. Unique sauces — like huitlacoche bordelaise — will play significant roles, and there will be creative seafood and pasta dishes. Sandoval will deliver fun twists on familiar steakhouse standards. Caviar, for example, will be paired with chicharrón. Sandoval cited Argentinian pyromanic chef Francis Mallmann as an influence. Sandoval is partnering with friend Oscar Sotelo. The pair met while working at Leña Brava, the West Loop Mexican restaurant, formerly run by Rick Bayless. Together, they formed Cinco Sueños, which will operate the Trino and a speakeasy-style bar on the lower level called Laberinto. The two projects replace Komo, a sushi restaurant owned by Nils Westlind. Westlind's upper-level lounge, ESCO, will remain. A rep says that 'together, the three concepts will form a cohesive, multi-level hospitality destination under one roof.' Leaning into the speakeasy vibe, a rep didn't share much about Laberinto. The interiors of Trino and its sibling bar will be designed in collaboration with Aida Napoles of AGN Design. Chicago chefs have worked hard to show America that the city's restaurant scene is about more than meat and potatoes, often a stereotype offered by myopic coastal elites offended by Midwestern charm. But steakhouses are also a safe bet to bring in revenue. As America deals with volatility — whether it's increased wages or labor challenges furthered by changes to immigration policy — diners will see fewer risks. Although the steakhouse formula is as tried and true as it gets, any genre can be livened up. Customers will soon see if Trino is up for the challenge. Trino, 738 W. Randolph Street, planned for a Wednesday, August 6 opening; reservations available via Resy.
