Doha: This summer, Four Seasons Hotel Doha tempts food enthusiasts with a newly added, mouth-watering plant-based menu that highlights an international health-conscious culinary concept with a local touch, to enjoy after a spa treatment or a workout, or simply to grab anytime throughout the day. 

As Four Seasons Hotel Doha continues to offer an indulging sensation of taste, comfort, and pleasure to all, it introduces its new vibrant platters through the feel-good Après Spa Café — complete with relaxing indoor or fresh-air terrace dining. The café, which opens at 7am, invites guests to start their day with a health-conscious breakfast, revitalise with an energising smoothie throughout the day, or grab a small bite to eat from the assortment of Folia’s appetisers, entrées, and desserts, which are available daily at 12 noon until 6pm, when the café closes.

Unique to Four Seasons, this concept was originally created by the celebrated American chef Matthew Kenney, the founder of more than 20 restaurants around the world. First launched at Four Seasons LA, Beverly Hills, Folia has bloomed with an added Middle Eastern touch as a result of a collaboration globally-recognised investor and healthy living advocate, Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed, and his company KBW Ventures. 

This mélange of flavours is introduced in different countries of the GCC, including Qatar. 

In this regard, the General Manager of Four Seasons Doha, Shadi Suleman said, “We are pleased to be presenting such flourishing food creations collaborated by the world-class chef, Matthew Kenney, and the energetic regional investor, Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed, to celebrate every Four Seasons visitor with a special international plant-based cuisine infused with local touch to enjoy throughout the summer.”

“It is fitting that Folia, crafted to appeal to palates that have eaten the finest in healthy cuisine, is being presented at Four Seasons Doha now that Qatar is preparing to welcome the world for one of the biggest sporting events in history. I look forward to seeing the Qatari plant-based dining scene elevated with Chef Kenney’s inspired dishes,” said Prince Khaled, remarking on the launch.  

Folia, with its delicate Latin name that stands for “from the leaves”, emphasises not only on following a healthy lifestyle on a personal level, but also on supporting global wellness.
