Emirates Marquee theme 2014: Germany!

Emirates Marquee menu tasting, 2014

Modern sophistication, fairy-tale fantasy and exquisite cultural diversity – Emirates is bringing Germany to the Flemington Birdcage for 2014.

Sometimes in the course of my job, I get to enjoy some very special experiences, not withstanding last week when I delighted in an exclusive menu tasting for the 2014 Emirates marquee.

At this year’s Cup Carnival, guests will be treated to an impressive menu of German-inspired delicacies, all expressive of the country’s iconic cuisine, but with a modern twist!

As always, the Emirates marquee will host the Birdcage’s only fully-serviced, sit-down restaurant, with 10 qualified chefs working over all four days of the carnival. The whole process will be overseen by the exacting eye of Head Chef, Tony Cimmino.

Taking inspiration from the 2014 Berlin International Design Festival, the marquee will feature bright pieces of furniture to pop against a crisp, fresh interior; a surprising mix of tradition with bold design strokes.

Far from biergartens and bratwurst – the interior of the marquee will honour a cool and contemporary Germany, with exquisite detailing and exceptional finishes. Prost!
