THE ROYAL LIVINGSTONE HOTEL BY ANANTARA PRESENTS UNFORGETTABLE OUTDOOR DINING EXPERIENCES (Zambia)
The Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara launches two exclusive new dining experiences that spotlight local flavours while enabling discerning travellers to enjoy the beauty of Zambia.
The Gorge Picnic and Zambezi Dining Experience promise a feast for all the senses with world class cuisine and an unparalleled connection to nature.
Nestled amidst the breathtaking scenery of the Batoka Gorge, the Gorge Picnic is a truly unique way to experience the natural splendour of the area. Hosted at the limited-access Bobo Camp, guests are flown in by helicopter to a secluded picnic spot overlooking the stunning Zambezi River.
Here, an exquisitely prepared gourmet picnic awaits, featuring locally sourced delicacies such as Zambezi River bream with ponzu dressing and beef boerewors in a jus of forgotten herbs.
Guests can relax on plush blankets and cushions while savouring each bite, surrounded by gorge’s dramatic cliffs as the mighty river flows by. This intimate setting on a private beach is perfect for special celebrations or corporate events. The scenic flight leaving the gorge provides sweeping views across Victoria Falls in a memorable finale to the afternoon.
The Zambezi Dining Experience invites guests on a sunset journey where they can learn more about life and customs in Zambia and witness the magnificent sunset over the river. After meeting at reception, guests are escorted to the herb garden for an introduction to Zambian farming and gardening techniques. They will enjoy their first course of tomato jelly with cured local river bream with a chikanda carpaccio and Zambian okra salad, highlighting local ingredients.
Guests are then transported by golf buggy to the riverbank, where their private chef awaits to serve Zambezi grilled bream with wilted spinach and tomato fondue. While the sun melts into the sky over the river, guests will be treated to stories about the river.
Splendid river views await at the third stop, where guests hear more about farming in Zambia and the chef explains the traditional method used to cook the beef and nshima which is served and eaten without cutlery.
The final site overlooks the mighty Victoria Falls. As 500 million litres of water rushes over the cliffs, guests can sample assorted desserts such as cassava cake and Mubuyu mousse. This elegant evening full of wonder immerses guests in the history of the Falls.
These carefully crafted experiences are designed to connect guests with the rich heritage and stunning landscapes of Zambia, while indulging in unforgettable local flavours. Don't miss the opportunity to partake in one of these magical dining encounters during your stay at this luxurious resort.
