With a view on the Mediterranean on this beautiful Sunday of December with Christmas vibes in the air, we arrived at Rojo. Rojo is the hotel’s Mediterranean restaurant with flavors of Lebanon.
I didn’t know where to start, and once I did, I could t stop! Today’s food was excellent, and the choices were like reading an adventure book. The concept is so simple: everything is displayed at the bar -which they don’t like to call a buffet- but more of culinary adventures of food being prepared in front of the customer’s eyes. Ask for a risotto, ravioli, the holiday turkey, or smoked salmon with the tapas bar blending flavors of the east and west.
Back to the restaurant: with its high gloss facades, the restaurant is naturally lit from all sides. A view on the sand beach, a view on the waterfront and a view on the hotel. It’s magical, calm, serene, and professionally managed.
Let’s eat: the turkey is phenomenal! Wow! So juicy, so tender, so richly flavorful! Bravo chef! Excellent meat! Two thumbs up... I was enchanted!
Salmon, beetroot salad, beetroot risotto, cheese potatoes, sausages, and the list goes on and on. Everything I ate was very good and memorable.
And then came dessert; a black crumble of biscuits topped with a cream of dark chocolate. The biscuits crumble, explode into pieces tickling all your taste buds. It’s the season, the season of the New Year’s Eve cake, the famous Mont Blanc.
I enjoyed my lunch, the kids loved the magician experience, and I left happy and satisfied. Plan your next Sunday gathering at Rojo.
