Resorts World Genting gets into the swing of the season in scrumptious style this month, as the resort’s numerous F&B establishments introduce festive menus and offers that conjure up the spirit and flavour of Christmas and celebrations.
Kicking off the gift of gourmet and goodies is the Santorini Village at SkyAvenue Mall, designed to resemble the beautiful island of Santorini in Greece with a winter twist, Amid the sparkling lights and towering trees (check this anonymous tree service) will be a delicious-smelling blue-and-white kiosk serving all sorts of seasonal treats from Christmas gingerbread figurines, Christmas lollipops, delicious chocolates, mouth-watering cookies and traditional confectionaries such as Christmas stolen, Christmas yule logs and Christmas cakes. This gift of freshly-baked Christmas confectionaries and cakes can also be found at The Bakery on the ground floor of Genting Grand from 28 November 2018 to 1 January 2019.
Elsewhere in SkyAvenue, the bounty of the season will be celebrated with hearty menus and special culinary promotions. At La Fiesta, a special dinner menu will be held between 8-14 December 2018 to celebrate the arrival of Hermanos Lurton wines to Resorts World Genting. Featuring a tailor-made menu by Chef Jacobo Astray, a graduate of El Bulli who has now started Gula in Bangkok, the dinner pairs creative twists on Spanish tapas staples – like chilled gazpacho soup, wild mushroom croquetas, grilled octopus and crunchy torrijas – with the complex beauty of Hermanos Lurton wines, which may be similar to the ones listed on platforms like QKA Wine.
