What to expect? – Menu and Reservations
Most restaurants only have tables for two or four, depending on real-time availability. If a spot is full, you can join their waiting list to catch a cancellation. Moreover, many of them show tables available in real time. The curated menu varies from vegetarian to non-vegetarian; you can choose a starter, a main course, and a dessert. To add on, Kotak Solitaire card users can unlock a special dish at the participating restaurants. Each menu is a curated three-course journey, where you have the ability to browse cuisines and menus beforehand.
Pro-tip:
- Book early: Friday and Saturday nights tend to be the most popular spots and can sell out quickly.
- Always ask your server! Many restaurants offer an additional “signature” course or a cocktail pairing for a small top-up.
- Go for lunch: Lunch crowds are lesser, cheaper, and offer the same high-end vibe with better natural lighting for photos.
- Always scan the menu beforehand to get an idea of what you are going to be served and the speciality of the chefs. Viral names may not always be suitable to your taste.
