The 3rd edition of the Kampala Restaurant Week was launched yesterday at the Sheraton Hotel Kampala and will see Kampala host the largest restaurant showcase.
Organised by Pearl Guide Uganda and powered by Uganda Breweries Limited’s premium beer, Tusker Lite, the Kampala Restaurant Week will run till July 15, 2017.
The yearly event has allowed more than 15,000 people to annually discover the best priced restaurants to have a meal at in Kampala.
All diners at the participating Restaurants will be handed a complimentary drink of Tusker Lite.Tusker Lite was introduced into the East African market in 2011 as a low carb beer uniquely brewed with natural ingredients. It delivers an easy drinking experience. The idea behind its introduction was to bring a new taste.
Speaking at the launch of this year’s Kampala Restaurant Week, Uganda Breweries Limited’s Head of Beers, Muzito Estella said; “We believe that our partnership with the Pearl Guide Uganda for the 3rd edition of Kampala Restaurant Week is intertwined in the above aspects. There is no better way to enjoy a meal with friends without a Tusker Lite by your side.”
Tusker Lite has firmly established itself as a beer that easily blends with any activity or event, be it a house party, a rugby match or a concert.
“We hope to increase the awareness of the Kampala Restaurant Week and adopt a fresh and exciting lifestyle targeting consumers who are always aware of what is happening around them and love a good meal,” added Estella.
“Kampala Restaurant Week is about creativity, discounts and good value. For one week, we convene over 40 of the city’s best restaurants and get them to each make new creative dishes over and above their usual dishes. Unlike the previous editions, this year, selected restaurants in Entebbe, Mbarara and Jinja will be taking part in the third edition of Kampala Restaurant Week,” Said Philip Kalibwani, the Business Development Manager at Pearl Guide Uganda.
The Kampala Restaurant Week will be capped off with an awards ceremony on the 15th July at the Sheraton Hotel Kampala. This will be to recognize the most outstanding chefs, restaurants and other participants in this edition.
In line with its support for responsible drinking, Tusker Lite will be maintaining a strict ‘over 18 only’ policy for sale of alcohol.
