I had dinner here. The starters are a buffet of meats, fish and salads - very nice. Main courses are from a menu - an English version is available. I had kangaroo steak, which is somewhere between beef and venison in flavour. Desserts are another buffet. Unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks.

This spectacularly designed restaurant is filled with exquisite food and quaint seating areas. One seating place is inside a train carriage on the side of the place. There are two mouthwatering buffets and a help yourself drinks buffet ( with unlimited alcohol). The first buffet is the main dish one with prawn spaghetti, snails, pate and many other things. The desert buffet includes a chocolate fountain, a stack of crepes, many mousses and a delightful collection of cakes. I really enjoyed eating here - especially a few hours before my ferry took me back to England.

Excellent restaurant. Has many sitting areas one of which is inside train carriages ! Very clean and good service and polite staff even though almost no one speask english except the manager who was very helpful and fun and eager to help and take our order .Abit on the expeinsive side but well worth it . Definately choose this if you dont want to risk the unknown !!!
