As I entered the restaurant the summer vibe called out to me. It was buzzing with with laughter and conversation. The soft yet classic naunces of the decor remind you of a far away restaurant in a different country, bold yet simplistic. The deck with the yachts and boats as a backdrop- LOVE IT. The service was a bit slow as can be expected when a restaurant is chock and block full but still of good quality. It’s just a pity that the wind blew away my naan bread for my chicken and prawn curry and it wasn’t replaced. Now for the food-my mouth was bursting with flavor from the chicken curry, the chicken was soft and broke into smaller pieces without any effort. The prawn however wasn’t as flavoursome, and when dipped into the curry it was overpowered. I would’ve loved for the prawn to have a more garlicy taste or something similar to bring out its flavor. Overall it was a good first time experience
