Monkeys, workmen, farm girls and little bears? In a kitchen? Just what is going on? “We’re having fun launching our new children’s menu,” laughs Peter Drescher, vice president of food & beverage, Mövenpick Hotels, Middle East and Asia. “These days children have constant sources of entertainment in the form of iPads, phones and games. So, we have to be equally entertaining with our food.”
Here, kids can eat with their fingers, paint carrots and arrange little characters.
Try a real Ninja lunch, which is made of Edamame beans, cucumber sword, quail egg, cheddar cheese, grilled chicken breast and maki roll, or an ‘Afternoon Healthy Maze’ with farmer’s carrots, celery, organic flour crostini and Swiss cheese sticks.
A sure kids’ favourite would also be macaroni pasta baked with vegetables, forest mushrooms and farmer’s Swiss cheese.
Another delight is the spaghetti pasta with three meatballs enhanced in organic tomato sugo.
But a thumbs up for the Curry-Cat — a caterpillar who carries curry-flavoured wholemeal toast bread and cucumber with him!
To round off the meal, your kid can choose one of his favourite flavoured mini low fat cream cheese cupcakes. Raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, mint… name it and he/she will get it. The cake lollipops with fresh fruits and sugar-free chocolate fondue are also delicious. Also, between the sheets is a vanilla-flavoured organic milk ricotta cheese cake surrounded by fresh summer berries, which looks really cute.
The food portions are tiny for adults but should suffice for the little ones. We also love the way toys have been used to liven up a plate — our little neighbour was drawn to a dish with a spinach patty! With the holiday season round the corner, looks like eating out is a little more fun for the little ones.
In seven words: A healthy, cool and fun kids menu
What we liked: The pleasing food illustrations
What we didn’t like: That the toys had to be returned with the empty plate
Restaurant best for: Power Bites menu which lets mummy and daddy enjoy a meal without being child-whipped in front of everybody else
Cost for two: Dh75-100
Did you know: When asked, most kids between the ages of three to 11 will list pizza as their favourite food
