job; but here the team is verydiverse, open to learnandwilling to teach.
Theolder generationshave theexperienceand theyounger have the
innovation, combined together…wehaveawinningmix.
What essential difference that you foundbetweenother cultures
andEgyptianculture?
In somecultures, theart of cuisine isnot prominent. Food is fuel to
themand theydon’t indulge in theexperience. I always like towork
withpeoplewhohavea storyandhistory. It iseasier to relateand
theyareusuallymoreopen to trynewdishes, likehere inEgypt.One
fundamental difference though ishow sweet thedesserts are! Specially
coming fromaFrenchbackgroundwherepastry ismoreflavorful but not
too sweet.
Youhavebeenbusyatwork sinceyoucamehere!What are the
excitingnewmenuchanges thatwemust try?
Wehavebeenworkingon revamping themenus and itwill happen in
phases. SarayaGallery isnowaFrenchBistrowith someEgyptian fusion
dishes suchas theMolokhiawithSeaScallops and freshRavioli.
I havenever hadMolokhiabefore so itwasexciting tocreatenewdishes
with it. TheMarriottBakery’s sandwichesnowhavedifferent typesof
bread suchaspanini, bagels andwraps.WealsoaddedauthenticFrench
pastry. “LePresident” cake,whichwasmade for aFrenchPresident, is
nowavailableexclusivelyat theBakeryand is amust-try; it ismadeof
chocolatemoussewithPanini inside, cherries andcocoapowder.
What’s your vision for theCairoMarriottHotel restaurants?
