Four Seasons Hotel Silicon Valley Unveils Locally Harvested Rooftop Honey Dining Experience to Support Bee Conservation Efforts
Quattro Restaurant & Bar launches a new culinary pop-up menu featuring its rooftop-harvested honey as part of its creative-sustainability initiatives
Palo Alto, Silicon Valley, U.S.A., 2023-Aug-02 — /Travel PR News/ — An alluring experience of luxury and locality finds itself at Quattro Restaurant & Bar. Four Seasons Hotel Silicon Valley, inside which the restaurant is located, has been housing honeybees on its rooftop since January 2023 and it is now ready with a sweet harvest. The luxury hotel partnered with a local San Jose-based honey manufacturer that also sustainably breeds queen bees and acquires bees from across the region. The team helped establish a honey harvesting box on the Hotel’s rooftop, under the Hotel team’s watchful eye.
Adora Manalo, General Manager, Four Seasons Hotel Silicon Valley, says, “The role of bees for the health of people and the planet cannot be overstated. Honey and derived products offer health benefits, and the role of bees as pollinators makes them critical for food supplies. A loss of bees would not only impact honey supplies, but, more importantly, world food security and biodiversity.”
The luxury Hotel, named as the #1 Hotel in Palo Alto by Tripadvisor, is inviting guests to enjoy its locally harvested rooftop honey, expertly crafted into a sensational four-course set menu, served on just one night only, Saturday, September 9, 2023. To elevate the dining experience, the sommelier at Quattro has carefully curated a selection of exquisite wines, perfectly paired with each course. Quattro restaurant recently was awarded the Wine Spectator restaurant award for its wine program, so guests can expect a wonderful wine pairing. The impeccable balance between the honey-infused dishes and the rich, nuanced flavours of the wines are expected to transport guests to gastronomic delight.
