Arabian Coffee Spice: the luxury of a bottle of coffee seasoning

[Ming Pao Special News] What a rich person will buy is not something that ordinary people can understand; what a rich place will do to build a luxury hotel is beyond the imagination of ordinary customers.

When I arrived in Abu Dhabi, the scenery before me seemed surreal--a dusty flat land, suddenly a row of orderly high-rise buildings appeared, full of "central control" precision calculation, without any organic development elements.

Swarovski crystal decoration everywhere

The richer the country, the more newly completed commercial buildings, the more it must demonstrate its abundant capital. Jumeirah at Etihad Towers has opened recently and is already very imposing. Jumeirah brand alone is already synonymous with luxury in the Middle East. Located in Abu Dhabi, it is even more expected to open up new areas of luxury. Stepping into the hotel lobby, I saw the huge shining chandelier. The waiter solemnly said,"It's decorated with a lot of Swarovski crystals." Whoosh.

Later, it was discovered that Swarovski crystal seemed to become a standard in Abu Dhabi luxury class_to show luxury, Swarovski crystal should be used. Because everyone uses it, so see too much, strange things meddle, can no longer provide additional surprises.

Immaculately appointed rooms, restaurant with unlimited sea views, designer spa and fitness room are also expected. Alas, I began to feel the luxury of dullness…

Michelin chef develops seasonings

After giving up on any expectations, I went to the executive floor for happy hour. The dishes and pastries were a combination of western tastes and Middle Eastern elements. It was very good. Obviously, there was no emphasis on foreign tastes. Ordered a cappuccino, brewed well, coffee aroma, foam thick and smooth. At this time, the waiter brought a bottle of small things, such as black pepper or mixed herbs commonly used in the kitchen. It turned out to be a seasoning called Arabian Coffee Spice. The ingredients included cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, and spices. Sprinkle a little on the coffee and immediately enhance the taste. In Italian coffee, feel the Middle East flavor. Really interesting.

Read the label carefully and discover that this small bottle was developed by German Michelin chef Alfons Schuhbeck exclusively for Jumeirah at Etihad Towers, but of course it is not available in the market.

Rich people will eat Michelin restaurants or open a Michelin restaurant; extremely rich people will ask Michelin chefs to create some small boutique products to add interest to their small lives.
