Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas, 'Strawberry Gourmet Boutique'.

[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] The Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas announced on the 28th that it will offer the 'Strawberry Gourmet Boutique,' featuring eco-friendly pesticide-free strawberries, at the first-floor lobby lounge from January 7 next year, available on Fridays through Sundays with limited seating.

This fine dining 3-course menu, suitable as a full meal, includes French-style strawberry desserts and fresh strawberries all served at the table, allowing guests to enjoy a comfortable dining experience while seated. An early bird discount of 10% is also available for advance reservations and payments made via Naver until the second week of January.

The Strawberry Gourmet Boutique allows guests to comfortably enjoy the course menu seated in the lobby lounge, set against the hotel's photo zone featuring the Crystal Ring decoration. Starting with eco-friendly pesticide-free strawberries delivered directly from the farm and a welcome drink of strawberry ade, the head chef presents three course dishes. These include apple salad with seared scallops and cauliflower pur?e, pumpkin cream soup topped with sweet red bean cream, followed by grilled lobster and beef Wellington as main dishes. The raclette cheese served alongside the main dishes is melted on the spot by the chef, offering both visual enjoyment and taste. Raclette cheese, a traditional Swiss cheese whose name means 'to scrape,' is presented in the authentic style at the Strawberry Gourmet Boutique by melting a whole wheel of cheese on a grill and scraping the melted portion directly onto potatoes.

After the meal, five types of French-style strawberry desserts?including fresh strawberries, Breton, mille-feuille, fraisier, and dacquoise?are served on a three-tier tray. Coffee or tea is also provided. As a farewell gift, guests receive freshly baked cranberry bread packed in an eco-friendly box made from natural pulp to take home.

Guests can enjoy 11 types of tea foods such as strawberry & yuzu tart, green tea wild strawberry cake, strawberry banana pudding, spicy pollock roe avocado grill, bikini sandwich, and scallops with cauliflower pur?e. Fresh strawberries and tea or coffee are served together. The same selection (excluding drinks and fresh strawberries) is also available as a to-go product.
