In Cancun, Pairing Classical Music and Food

By: - May 15th, 2016

It’s not your typical all-inclusive experience.

The Hideaway at Royalton Riviera Cancun has launched a new private dining option that blends gastronomy and classical music.

The add-on experience includes seven courses including dishes like foie gras and yellowfin tuna, with each timed to a dedicated instrumental soundtrack.

“C/X Culinary Experience is already successful at CHIC Punta Cana by Royalton Luxury Resorts, and based on guest satisfaction we’ve opened this artisanal concept here,” said Francisco Jorge, General Manager of Royalton Riviera Cancun. “This chef’s table is where dining transforms into art with its presentation and flavor, and I’m certain our guests will enjoy this premium experience.”
