Great food
There are a wealth of great dining options to choose from, from the traditional to the modern. Enjoy amazing dishes such as the succulent fin de Claire oysters or the super fresh soft shell crab. You can enjoy classic flavours such as pork belly or roasted duck, all served with an Eastern twist.
Or if you just want a few light bites instead of a full four-course meal, why not try the deep fried shrimp dumplings and spicy sweet sauce, the deep-fried vegetables with salted egg yolk and pickled seaweed, or perhaps share a plate of the amazing chicken wings in a Thai herb sauce.
The chef’s special selection includes pomelo salad with grilled tiger prawn and coconut powder or the grilled pork with sunflower sprouts, Thai spicy sauce, and pickled watermelon. The food is a great value and always big on flavour.
