Created by top chefs from across IHG hotels in AMEA to showcase regional flavors, the new and improved dishes will complement the new fruit cocktails on offer, giving guests a heightened experience. Some of the new snacks on offer include: • InterContinental: Ahi Tuna Poke, Wagyu Beef Sliders and Crispy Roasted Duck Spring Rolls • Crowne Plaza: Truffle Beef Tartar Puff Sandwich, Lime & Garlic Marinated Mussels and Tomato & Parmesan Arancini with Basil Pesto • Holiday Inn: Artichoke & Parmesan Rolls, Snapper & Prawn Stuffed Green Chilis and Lamb Kofta Guests can enjoy these new menus across IHG hotels in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, from the center of the holy city at InterContinental Dar Al Hijra Madinah, Crowne Plaza Jeddah in the heart of the city's diplomatic district and at the relaxing Holiday Inn Yanbu, set in lush, landscaped gardens to Crowne Plaza Kuwait, which is renowned for its numerous well-regarded signature restaurants. Phil Broad, Vice President, Food & Beverage, AMEA, IHG, said: “We know that we already provide a fantastic food and beverage offering to our guests - whether that's a sumptuous three course meal in one of our specialty restaurants, a filling breakfast at an all-day dining restaurant or a meal in the privacy of your room through in room dining. The launch of these new lounge menus enhances our guests' experience outside of these main meal times - so we can provide guests with an excellent food and drink experience, whatever time of day it is and however big or small the appetite.” — SG
