Larger than life TV personality and chef, Ainsley Harriet, stayed at InterContinental Malta during his visit to Malta and the Mediterranean Food Festival, which was held at the Eden Arena. During his stay, Ainsley paid a visit to the kitchen at InterContinental Malta and spoke to all the chefs present. He was charismatic and charming to guests and staff alike and literally had time for everyone, stopping to have a chat or joke with whoever he came across. "It was an honour and great pleasure to have him staying with us" said general manager Christophe Laure
