KAMPALA- When it comes to experiences and theme nights in the hospitality space, the “Swahili night” at Protea Hotel Marriot Kampala is one of the authentic outings that is a notch higher. This is one of the reasons it has been going on for some time ever since it was launched last year.
For starters, guests are treated to a sumptuous meal with lots of delicacies that brings out the real coastal dishes and more with an inclination to the same.
On Saturday, May 27, the team at the facility will stretch the menu further and have organised and included Congolese cuisine to offer a broader service coupled with a unique mouth – watering delicacies for the taste buds over the weekend.
According to Ankur Panchal, general manager, Protea Hotel Kampala, they are moving another step further in the right direction in order to deliver a wider service to their customers and this has been evident due to the continuous numbers that have been registered at the Hotel.
