New York, New York!
The Cork International Hotel is celebrating 10 years of the New Yorker Bar and Restaurant with a unique New York inspired evening.
The chefs have designed a number of specials with a Big Apple theme which they will serve on Friday, October 4th 2024 from 5pm. Among the specials will be a revisited Waldorf Salad which was created between 1893 and 1896 at the Waldorf Hotel in New York City and Rigatoni Pasta alla Vodka inspired by the New York famous Carbone’s spicy rigatoni vodka. Diners will also be able to enjoy one of New York’s most famous cocktails – the Manhattan.
Locally sourced produce and sustainability have always been a key consideration for the team at the Cork International Hotel. Earlier this year, a food charter was launched to help reduce food waste by 20% and the chefs are continuing to build and develop the initiative.
Among the 10 commitments outlined in the charter is to monitor all waste and its source and use every element of a product where suitable. They are also designing no-waste dishes by creating specific meals which do not generate organic or non-organic by-product waste.
Head Chef of the Cork International Hotel, Paul Ryan said: “We are celebrating a significant landmark having served locals and visitors for the last 10 years. It is important that we continue to change with the times and while we always opted for locally sourced produce, we have really stepped up our efforts to make the Cork International Hotel a greener hospitality partner.”
