With the theme 'Siz-Siz Sizzler', the handpicked menu by the chef is mounted on wooden platters. As salivating as it looks, be careful before you dig in-true to its name the food is hot and steamy!
There are 30 special sizzlers to choose from including executive chef Dorairaj's recommendation,the Seafood Mixed Grill-sea food served with potato wedges and a blend of brown and white sauces that leave a tangy taste. The non vegetarian choices include chicken, lamb, prawns and a galore of sea food varieties. Though the vegetarian choices are limited, they are equally savoury. An added bonus is the food is as healthy as it can get with a choice set of veggies like broccoli, Brussel sprouts, baby corn, mushroom and carrots, coated in white sauce. This could be a godsend for parents who want their children to eat vegetables without being fussy.
