Dining Out On Friday: It’s a Grand way to dine

Malta Independent Friday, 12 November 2010, 00:00 Last update: about 12 years ago

The Grand Hotel Excelsior is now in its third year of operation and from the first few months of opening, it was very clear that the culinary offerings were to set a new standard on the Maltese Islands. The ever so popular Sunday buffet lunch takes patrons on a culinary journey that is second to none. The lavish spread of food includes a never ending array of antipasti, 88 to be precise, seven live cooking stations to include Sushi, Pasta, Indian, Turkish, Carvery, Berkel and the dessert station. Last but definitely not least, a spectacular spread of 28 different desserts, featuring the all time favourite chocolate fountain with fruits, marshmallows and doughnuts for dipping. The award winning kitchen brigade is exceptionally passionate about the food created and makes a supreme effort to offer unparalleled cuisine using a harmonious collection of fresh, wholesome ingredients to nourish the senses.

Headed by Executive Head Chef Roger Friggieri, the team craves innovation and individuality and has taken this year’s Sunday buffet lunch one step further by creating an additional specialty corner for savoury and sweet items where a different theme will feature each week.

Seeing as Sunday is a family day out, the team has also set up a children’s corner to feature pasta, chicken nuggets, sausages and potato smileys.

This Grand experience comes at the small price of €33 per adult, half price for children between the ages of six and 11 and free for the under fives.

Harbour View – 24 Hour bar

The Grand Hotel Excelsior’s Harbour View Lounge is the only one on this side of the island to offer 24 hour service. Light snacks and beverages can be consumed in the relaxing and warm ambiance while soaking up stunning harbour and sea views.

Chartroom Lounge –

Afternoon Tea

In the tradition of true hospitality, the Grand Hotel Excelsior serves Afternoon Tea in the cosy atmosphere of the Chartroom Lounge Bar every day between 3 and 5pm. English scones, freshlybaked cakes and pastries and a special ‘Chocolate Delicacy’ are just some of the delights to discover for the price of €28 to share.
