A special treat for Vegan and vegetarian people, and those who look for a halal yummy food.

What a feast! And wonderful time we spent trying new dishes and delicious plates of flavours.

Staff were accommodating for our needs, gave us many options, and were so helpful ❤️so lovely seeing women in the kitchen making special touches.

Thanks Ancona, this was a wonderful dinner, a one inspiring for a cook 😅

Hope to see more of this in...
