The courtyard area boasts a leafy green coverage, along with a cascading waterfall, while indoors the tropical aquarium becomes the main focal point between the bistro and bar areas providing a welcoming dining experience in the contemporary bistro, which has an appetising menu with meals created by quality chefs. The newly opened function room provides a private area, catering for corporate functions, birthdays and other social events, holding up to 100 people. The area provides a casual lounge atmosphere or formal dining experience depending upon your type of function
