Q: I’m considering organising a meeting that invo- lves a culinary experience. Any suggestions? A: This will really depend on the size of the group/meeting and the time you would allocate to such a meeting but what springs to mind is • Chef’s table • Baking/cooking competitions with the supervision of the Rocco Forte Culinary Team
• Dine around in the seven restaurants and bars followed by a culinary quiz
• ‘A taste of .......’ theme with different food stations for guests to try the food and ask questions about the dishes served
Q: Some of my delegates will bring their families to the meeting I am organising. What facilities and services can the hotel offer and what activities can you suggest for them in Abu Dhabi? A: Exclusive spa use can be organised and we also have a children’s programme. Adjacent to the hotel is a luxury shopping arcade and we are close to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque where cultural tours can be conducted. For a sporty experience, the new Al Forsan
International Sports Resort can be reached from the hotel in 10 minutes and the Abu Dhabi Golf Club is close by. And for the families who want a day filled
with speed, Yas Island with Ferrari World and the Yas Circuit are 15 minutes away from us.
