Share

The Hotel Grand Pacific is kicking off 2017 with two new menu features in The Pacific Restaurant. Dinner guests will be able to keep the winter chills at bay by indulging in the restaurant’s new three-course fondue menu. Later in January, the Year of the Rooster will be celebrated with a special Chinese New Year edition of the hotel’s popular afternoon tea.

A Fondue Experience

For a limited time, The Pacific is featuring a modern twist on a European classic, the fondue. The Pacific Fondue menu includes four varieties, each a fresh take on traditional cheese, broth and chocolate fondues. Diners have the option of a three-course fondue menu for $80 per couple, or ordering a la carte from the following:

– Truffle & Roasted Garlic Cheese Fondue served with baguette, vegetables, and apple;

– Spiced Beef or Cioppino Tomato Broth Fondues, served with beef and chicken, along with vegetables and dipping sauces;

– Grand Marnier Dark Chocolate Fondue, served with fresh fruit, marshmallows, banana cakes and whipped cream.

Additional items for dipping can be added to the fondues, including prawns, lobster tail, and cheese tortellini.
