Jumeirah Grand Hotel Via Veneto hosts Rory McIlroy 




16 August 2012

Jumeirah Group, the global luxury hotel company and member of Dubai Holding,
recently hosted its global brand ambassador, golfer Rory McIlroy, at the
Jumeirah Grand Hotel Via Veneto in Rome. 

The Jumeirah team in Rome treated Rory to an old-fashioned tour of The
Eternal City on a classic Italian scooter. Rory's day in Rome included
stopovers by must-see tourist areas, all located within short distance of
Jumeirah Grand Hotel Via Veneto, such as the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain,
the Spanish Steps and Villa Borghese, where Rory had a chance to hit a few
golf balls. A short video was filmed to document the highlights of Rory's
ride through Rome.

Whether for business or leisure, travellers can also have a taste of
Jumeirah in Rome thanks to a special package offered by Jumeirah Grand Hotel
Via Veneto. Until 30 September 2012, guests of the hotel can take advantage
of a "Book 3 nights and pay 2" summer package.

Located in the heart of Rome on the exclusive via Veneto, Jumeirah Grand
Hotel Via Veneto is the union of two 19th century historical buildings in
the city centre. While the hotel's façade is protected by Rome's Fine Arts
Authority, the interior design of the hotel is defined by timeless elegance
embodied by handmade furniture inspired by Ruhlmann, the father of 1920s Art
Deco. 

Custom-made Murano glass chandeliers, black granite floors and travertine
stairways complement the sleek wood furniture throughout the hotel. Jumeirah
Grand Hotel Via Veneto hosts an impressive art collection of oil paintings
and lithographs by legendary artists such as Burri, Carrà, Dalí, Miró and
Picasso, taking guests and visitors on a fascinating journey through
contemporary art.  

Jumeirah Group has sponsored Rory McIlroy from the very first year he turned
professional in 2007. Spotting his prodigious talent early on, Jumeirah
invested in the young golfer's career and has followed it with great passion
ever since. Rory recently reclaimed the top spot of the Official World Golf
Rankings by winning the PGA Championship in the US with a record eight
strokes.

In addition to Jumeirah Grand Hotel Via Veneto in Rome, Jumeirah Group has
opened four luxury hotels in Europe in the past 12 months - Jumeirah hotel
in Frankfurt (Germany), Pera Palace Hotel, Jumeirah in Istanbul (Turkey),
Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel & Spa in Mallorca (Spain), Jumeirah Grand Hotel
Via Veneto in Rome (Italy) and Grosvenor House Apartments by Jumeirah Living
on Park Lane in London (UK). The company has also launched two new Maldives
hotels and resorts and properties in Shanghai, Abu Dhabi and Dubai

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

Image
A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then
