Vegetarian or non-vegetarian, items are yummy in an unmatching ambience

MOUTHWATERING Enjoying a nutritious evening

Eating out in Madurai means different things. It can be a quick snack on the move munching a corn on the cob while gazing at the speeding vehicles and its smoky breathings or a long-slow appetising dinner in one of the city's myriad posh restaurants and hotels or any other form that suits the need of the moment and the individual purse strings. People who do not want to loosen their purse strings prefer `kaiyenthi bhavan,' which is an in-thing, grumbling at their inability to parade through posh hotels and have a candle light dinner. If you are one of the grumblers wanting to spend a little bit for comfort and ambience, then head for Hotel Saratha Rajans, which works with a motto of `economy with excellent service.' The hotel, established in 2002 with D. Boominathan as managing director, has carved a niche for itself.

Different food courts

It allows its customers to indulge in their choice of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian delicacies. Kowshika, an exclusive multi-cuisine vegetarian restaurant and Raja, a restaurant for multi-cuisine non-vegetarian gourmets, satiate the customers' needs.

For those who want to get attuned with nature in a fairytale ambience with a star-studded sky, Sangeetha, the roof-top restaurant, serves its customers with all kinds of food items.

Purse-friendly

R. Kalyan Kumar, manager (operations), claims that the hotel enjoys the support of many regular non-vegetarian customers for its rashmi chicken, a tandoori item, kebab chicken, prawns skewered and grilled and succulent and soft kebabs heated on a granite slab. For both regulars and new customers, the hotel offers a wide range of vegetarian items hot and cold beverages, salads, sandwiches, breakfast and snacks with a variety of idlis, fully attired cap-dosas, parathas, rice and roti, raitha, paneer French, vegetable fried wonton etc.

Step into the hotel, you are sure to enjoy an orchestra of flavours in a classy and glassy ambience, wrought iron furniture, wood topped tables, lanterns and a barbecue menu.
