Savvy travelers looking for an outdoor culinary experience this summer can indulge in a perfectly curated picnic in some of the most beautiful places on earth. Guests of Kempinski Hotels worldwide can take in the sounds of the forest, the scent of the sea, or revel in mountain vistas while enjoying delicious treats prepared by the culinary teams from a selection of five-star hotels. The Great Outdoors has never looked so sweet.
The prestigious Çırağan Palace Kempinski Istanbul hosts sumptuous picnic events in its lush gardens, surrounded by the historical Palace, iconic hotel and stunning pool. Located on the bank of the Bosphorus, the famous strait separating the continents of Europe and Asia, the hotel offers colourful seating and a luxury picnic full of exquisite delicacies, perfect for guests who wish to relax in the gardens of the palace and enjoy the aromatic flavours of Turkish culinary culture. The opulent picnic delights with specialities for every taste: regional snacks such as shrimp cocktail and fresh bread from the Çırağan Palace bakery spoil guests just as much as typical warm starters made from coriander, beef and beetroot dough or mini kibbehs. For dessert, handmade baklava, stuffed figs, and other sweet classics of Ottoman cuisine are a must.
A truly memorable picnic experience is offered by the Grand Hotel des Bains Kempinski St. Moritz and promises to not only be a feast for the taste buds but also offers a deeper connection to the natural riches of the Swiss Alps. Guests can choose to explore the beauty of the Engadine Valley on their own or in the company of one of the hotel Chefs. Following a leisurely or sporty hike through the impressive landscape of St. Moritz, guests can indulge in the amenities of the award-winning hotel, even in the midst of untouched nature. The trip culminates in a delicious picnic with an array of local delicacies prepared by the Chef, who will willingly share their secret picnic spots and favorite hiking routes upon request.
