Omni Launches 'Simply Street Food' Menu

1/8/2013 | The Scene

One of the greatest joys of traveling the world is getting the opportunity to experience the flavor of a culture through unique food offerings. And often times, the greatest portrayal of heart and innovation comes in the form of street food sampled from curb-side vendors, open-air markets, and freewheeling trucks.

But Omni Hotels & Resorts is giving guests the chance to sample some of the most authentic and delicious street foods from around the world with it's new "Simply Street Foods" menu. This year, Omni partnered with chefs from Global Hotel Alliance (GHA) properties for a competition to create a dish that celebrates an authentic dish from their home region. More than 160 recipes were submitted by chefs from 56 countries.

Six dishes were selected to be featured on the new menu—three dishes from Omni chefs, and three from GHA member chefs.

“Each year Omni invites our culinary team to circle the globe through our Flavors of the World program, to experience unique regional flavors first-hand and find new inspiration to create a menu that is both innovative and appealing for the modern American table,” said Stephen Rosenstock, senior vice president of food and beverage for Omni Hotels & Resorts. “By partnering with Global Hotel Alliance chefs, we are able to offer our guests authentic cuisine from the Middle East to Asia to the Americas, drawing from our GHA network.”

The featured dishes include Famous Peddler’s Char Kway Teow from Chef Andy Oh, Pan Pacific Orchard in Singapore; Short Rib and Vermont Cheddar Sandwich from Chef Gerard Tice, Omni Parker House; Chicken Musakhan Sandwich from Chef Moh’d Alla Alaham, Emirates Palace Abu Dhabi; Citrus Ancho Braised Lamb Tostado from Chef Scott Mole, Omni Bedford Springs; Duck Empanada with Smoked Tomato Mayonnaise Chef Gene Moss, from Omni La Mansion; and Acarajé de Orixá from Chef Josemar Passos, Tivoli Ecoresort Praia do Forte in Bahia, Brazil.

The wordly menu will be available at Omni Hotels & Resorts bars and lounges through March 2013. Check out the video below to find out more about the new street-food menu from Omni Hotels & Resorts:
