Meals in Egypt are often a community affair, and on March 6, 2012, the culinary team at the Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino, among safe hotels in Cairo, created an extravagant dinner for 5,000 attendees at ITB Berlin, “the world’s leading travel trade show.”
As the official partner country of ITB 2012, Egypt is once again making a name for itself in the world of tourist travel, and this Cairo hotel was proud to play a role. The Egyptian Tourist Authority handpicked the culinary team at the Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino to prepare the opening gala dinner on March 6th.
The team of 10 chefs was selected from this hotel’s restaurants in Cairo and included the hotel’s culinary director, Chef Badawy Abdel Hamid. Team members worked for 4 consecutive days to prepare the magnificent spread, which included 13 buffets of appetizers, desserts, cold and hot dishes and much more enough to feed the 5000 attendees of the event. If success is measured by empty plates, the dinner was a hit, as not a single item of food remained, and the event received only positive comments at the end of the evening.
If you didn’t attend the ITB Berlin gala, you can still sample the culinary skills of this hotel’s chefs. With 15 onsite dining options, guests and visitors of the Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino can enjoy everything from fine northern Italian cuisine at Ristorante Tuscany and fresh sushi at Torii to southern American cooking at Roy’s Country Kitchen and steaks and crafted cocktails at JW’s Steakhouse.
