There is an appetite for it and Kigali Marriott is very delighted to be at the forefront of that. This is the first of a series of events we shall be hosting monthly and this will be open to the public to come and learn about different varieties of wines and enjoy them. We shall also be offering our fantastic foods to complement that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Well over a couple of months now, Kigali Marriott has been introducing different cuisines including Italian, Turkish, Belgian and now Brazilian cuisine come Wednesday (February 28).<\/p>\n<p>Having opened its doors in Kigali City centre in mid-2016, the five-star Kigali Marriott Hotel is part of Marriott International which is present in more than 110 countries with more than 6,000 properties globally.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24114 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/_mg_9087.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24115 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/_mg_9090.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24116 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/_mg_9098.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24117 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/_mg_9101.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24118 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/_mg_9103.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24119 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/_mg_9110.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24122 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/fun-filled_wine_tasting_evening_at_marriott_hotel.jpg\" alt=\"Fun-filled Wine Tasting Evening at Marriott Hotel\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24123 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/img_9465.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24124 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/img_9472-edit.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24125 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/img_9473.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24126 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/marriott_added_new_types_like_lacheteau_vouvray_from_france_and_chile_s_casa_de_campo_on_its_menu_of_over_50_wine_types.jpg\" alt=\"Marriott added new types like LaCheteau Vouvray from France and Chile\u2019s Casa de Campo on its menu of over 50 wine types\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24127 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/marriott_staff_interacted_with_guests_during_the_wine_tasting_evening.jpg\" alt=\"Marriott staff interacted with guests during the Wine Tasting Evening\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-24128 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/rex_a.g._nijhof_kigali_marriott_s_general_manager_r_a_guest_c_and_kigali_marriott_s_f_b_director_simon_hodson.jpg\" alt=\"Rex A.G.
