CATERING TEAM ‘HIT THE
RIGHT NOTES’
AT FUNDRAISING
“SYMPHONY IN
THE PARK”
The festive setting of the Aquarium Grotto Garden
in Zamalek was the perfect scene for the first
“Symphony in the Park” event in December, organized
by The Zamalek Association to raise funds for urban
renewal projects in Zamalek.
The garden and table set up were distinctively
designed to create a Christmas atmosphere; local
stores from Zamalek sold creative gifts that make
ideal Christmas presents, while the professional and
expert touch of the Cairo Marriott’s catering team
created the finest cuisine for guests at the elegant
seated lunch.
The Cairo Symphony Quartet and Boghdady Jazz
Band provided a delightful mix of light classics and
popular favorites to keep the mood swinging as
guests danced and sang along with the music.
The main purpose of the event was to raise funds
for urban renewal projects in Zamalek, such as
tree maintenance, garbage collection and repaving
sidewalks. In addition, there was also a booth for
securing financial support for the Magdy Yacoub
Heart Foundation and its noble cause.
