Top Chef Mark Best to serve Gourmet Delights at the Hilton Maldives in October

This October, the Hilton Maldives Resort & Spa will fly out Mark Best, one of the best chefs working in Australia today, accompanied by two of the country’s most respected wine makers, Vanya Cullen from the Margaret River area and Charles Melton from the Barossa Valley, for a series of special food and wine dinners between 7 and 11 October 2007.

“Naturally we’re very excited to host a chef of Mark Best’s standing at the resort,” said the resort’s Food and Beverage Manager, Patrick Manthe, “Mark has been voted the best chef in Australia for the last two years. To add to the excitement, both Vanya Cullen and Charles Melton will also be attending the event and bringing their best wines with them, which will give our guests a fantastic opportunity to sample some of their great wines.”

Mark Best’s ‘degustation menu’ will be offered at Vilu, the resort’s open-air lagoon-facing restaurant. Mark will also be hosting a dinner both at the underground Wine Cellar, Ithaa - an intimate restaurant at two metres below sea level and The Wine Bar, with a black sand floor and designer lighting. A biodynamic lunch will also be taken place at the Mandhoo Spa Restaurant.

The Hilton Maldives Resort & Spa is running a special offer of seven nights for the price of five in Deluxe Beach Villas and Water Villas that runs concurrently with Mark, Vanya and Charles’ visit. Room rates in October begin at US$510 / night for two including breakfast.
