“We get patrons from all over the world, so the idea is to serve global cuisine. We have specialties of every cuisine on our menu, so a tourist from anywhere in the world, gets something of his own preference. Steaks are our USP. We have steaks from all over the world. Some of the dishes are our creations, keeping in mind the taste of today’s food loving generation,” explains Satinder Pal Singh, the executive chef.
