Customized recipes help guests save and thrive
Residence Inn by Marriott® has teamed up with celebrity chef Brian Duffy of Kildare’s Irish Pub fame to show guests how they can thrive and maintain balance while on the road. Chef Duffy has created delicious recipes specifically designed to be prepared easily in a Residence Inn guest suite kitchen – along with a series of short, high-energy cooking videos – www.youtube.com/residenceinn - that demonstrate how each dish is prepared. The informative videos were all shot on location in a Residence Inn guest suite kitchen using the quality in-room equipment and utensils and minimal ingredients.
During each video, Chef Duffy showcases how Residence Inn guests can establish the kind of patterns that help them maintain a normal routine on the road, utilize the spaciousness of their suites, and energize themselves. To make it even easier for guests to prepare their favorite meals while on the road, Residence Inn offers guests a free grocery delivery service.
