Exquisite Cuisine

Dining at the hotel's restaurant was a highlight of my stay. The fish dishes were flavorful and the Grand Sal cake was simply a must-try. The portion sizes were generous and the presentation of each plate was amazing. Every meal was a delight to the senses that I would highly recommend.
