Naturally

| We
offer a wide choice of kosher menu options, including four delectable
set menus, a hot and cold kosher buffet, two cocktail menus and a
kosher brunch menu. In keeping with present food trends, kosher menus
are lighter and less complex, emphasising the freshest, finest seasonal
produce and linefish. |

Themed Evenings
There
are a wide range of themed evenings that can be selected and adapted to
suit your particular function, for example African Theme, Cape Malay
Theme or Seafood Barbeque Theme.
There is
plenty of room for backdrops, props, tables and a large dance floor,
ensuring that the effect of the theme can be carried throughout the
function room. |
