METROPOLE CHEFS DESIGN ZERO WASTE SUMMER MENU
The METROPOLE Hotel Cork has launched a Summer Special Menu which focuses on sustainability and supporting local producers.
The Metropole, which is located on McCurtain St in the heart of the VQ, has a target of reducing food waste by 20%. The team are monitoring closely all waste and food sources and are using every element of a product where suitable. They are also creating specific meals which do not generate organic or non organic by-product waste.
The Summer Special Menu has been designed to showcase the best of local ingredients such as Union Hall Grilled Hake, Tim Mulcahy�s Chicken Supreme, McCarthy�s Slow Cooked Shoulder of Lamb and Seasonal Rhubarb with West Cork Strawberries.
Guests can now enjoy a two-course dinner accompanied by a choice of a glass of wine, beer or soft drink in the Met Bar & Restaurant. The summer menu is available seven days a week from 5.00pm and costs �32.50 per person.
Pierce Lowney, Director of Food & Beverage, Trigon Hotels said: �We might not be getting the weather that we hoped for this summer but our customers can celebrate summer with our exciting menu. Our highly qualified chefs also ensure that each menu changes with the seasons and uses the finest local ingredients to create our delicious meals. The Summer Special Menu offers a variety of mouth-watering options to suit all palates and we look forward to celebrating summer in the heart of Cork City.�
