Upon entrance one notices the huge glass windows, letting in just the right amount of sunlight, for those perfect sun-kissed photos. These windows are the major source of light during the day, and reflect off the bright furniture and bold textures, creating an interesting play of light and shadow you won’t stop looking at. And that’s not it, as the sun sets, experience the perfect golden hour, with rays passing through the glass windows, making the restaurant glow as if its adorned in shiny jewels.

The various seating arrangements and styles gives one the liberty to choose their mood for the day, whether it be a family dinner or a night out with their friends! Ranging from muted greys to hues of red and green, the seating is a playful mix of colour and texture. The walls follow the monotony of tiles and an arrangement of rods and circles, surrounded by concealed lighting, giving the space more depth and dimension while the ceiling adds onto the dimension with its bold patterns and fluted design.

With shadows falling on the flooring and creating patterns, the bar shines brightly against the sunlight during the day. Looking over the perfect view of skyscrapers and huge office complexes seen from afar, the bar is the focal point of the restaurant.  The black textured island is topped with a light wood countertop and paired with dark green high chairs. The subtle hints of metallic accents and figurines present makes the space look cohesive and brings in the silver screen glamour and bling! As the evening falls and the cloud-clad buildings light up the night sky, experience the view while sipping on a curated list of cocktails and drinks.
