Culinary Delight

“The restaurant at Villa Shanti left a lasting impression on me with its strong French flavor in both ambiance and food. I particularly enjoyed the steamed curry leaf fish paired with a refreshing virgin mojito on a hot day. While the service was excellent, I would suggest opting for tables suited for dining rather than beverages during lunch.” view full review
