Dining
The Dining Room
Glazed on three sides and set on the upper level, so the hills are part of every meal.
Home/Dining
Our restaurant
Cooked to order, eaten with a view
Long timber tables, glass on three sides and the valley falling away below — the room does half the work before the food arrives.
The kitchen is deliberately unfussy. Breakfast is a buffet: idli, dosa, pongal and vada, eggs cooked the way you ask, toast, fresh fruit and filter coffee. Lunch and dinner run à la carte across South Indian, North Indian and Continental, with a vegetarian selection at every service and Chettinad specials on request. Everything is cooked to order, so tell the front office roughly when you plan to eat and the kitchen will be ready for you.
If you are heading out before sunrise for Berijam Lake or the Pillar Rocks viewpoints, ask the night before and the kitchen will pack breakfast and flasks of coffee for the drive.
