LAS VEGAS, NV, November 07, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Holiday Inn Las Vegas Hotel introduces Forte Grille, a fresh new restaurant concept, located just moments from the strip. With a young, hip energy and ultrachic decor, Holiday Inn Las Vegas is no ordinary Holiday Inn. Likewise, Forte Grille is no ordinary hotel restaurant.
The menu and atmosphere at Forte Grille capture the eclectic spirit of Las Vegas itself - light, playful and full of surprise. The diverse selection delivers Global Fusion Cuisine executed with sound French techniques. The signature Scallop Seduction exemplifies the approach beautifully. Sweet sea scallops are dusted with cream of wheat and quick-seared, then paired with an aromatic bacon and sweet corn risotto and finished with lavender curry cream.
This succulent entree joins an engaging menu of creative fusions and modern updates. Everything from classic shrimp cocktail to steak and fries has been turned up to deliver Forte flavor.
Behind both the menu and concept is celebrated Executive Chef and Food & Beverage Director Shane Sutton. Chef Sutton began his culinary career in his native home of Hawaii apprenticing at Le Guignol, today considered one of the top fine dining restaurants in Hawaii. It was here that he developed his creative, yet unintimidating style and his knack for contrasting textures and flavors.
After working as Executive Chef and Owner of Le Guignol for seven years, Chef Sutton moved with his family to Las Vegas in 2005 seeking a new culinary challenge.
Following prestigious positions at several Las Vegas restaurants at the Paris Hotel and Casino and The Palms, Chef Sutton is excited to present a vibrant concept in Forte Grille.
"I am excited to return to an intimate kitchen and the roots of cooking."
Management at Holiday Inn Las Vegas expects Forte Grille to prove just as popular with locals and guests from other hotels as with those staying at Holiday Inn. Kelley Camp, Director of Sales and Marketing at Holiday Inn Las Vegas, says:
'This isn't your standard hotel diner. This is a sassy joint to grab a dish and a drink, surrounded by a hip and very cool hotel."
Forte Grille will celebrate its Grand Opening along with the hotel on December 1, 2009. Advanced hotel reservations are now available. For more information about Forte Grille or the Holiday Inn Las Vegas, visit the Web site at http://www.hilasvegashotel.com
