Karachi: Food enthusiasts in the city of lights can now enjoy a new variety of Pan Asian cuisine at the recently launched NAMI ZUMI Restaurant at Marriott Hotel, Karachi.
Previously known as Suzie Wong, the restaurant was relaunched as NAMI ZUMI unveiling its new menu during an exclusive and grand opening event hosted at the Hotel on 10th November.
The specialty Chef, Yair Binyamin, has worked extensively to recreate the menu, introducing specialties from Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia and Mongolia, in addition to Chinese cuisine.
Present amongst the guests were Consul Generals from different countries, Corporate Executives, celebrities, influencers, socialites and Management from Karachi Marriott Hotel. The event entailed a red-carpet reception followed by a musical performance and a Chinese dragon dance, while the guests sampled through the latest culinary additions on the revamped menu such as Singapore Kung Pao Lobster, Indonesian Wok Chart Shrimps, Szechuan Crispy Caramelized Sticky Fish, Singapore Rock Shrimps, Beijing Crispy Beef, Soups, Panna Cotta, Crème Brûlée and fancy mocktails.
“We wanted to create a space where people can experience a taste of modern Pan Asian cuisine,” said Mr. Gregor Schmidt Kiefer, the hotel’s General Manager. “You can come by yourself or arrive as a group and experience a selection of delicious dishes from nine countries, all under one roof. It’s a place for people to connect over good food,” he added.
A little dessert neatly rounds off the new menu, putting an Asian spin on classic French desserts. For instance, there’s Crème Brûlée flavoured with lemon grass, but dessert lovers should also look out for the delicious Coconut Milk Ice Sago, to get a real taste of Southeast Asia.
NAMI ZUMI will prove to be a great addition on the culinary map of Karachi, with its all-authentic Pan Asian menu.
