Partying in buzzing central Koregaon Park may be tremendous fun but it may also leave you peckish at the later hours. If search for something quick and filling turns out to be futile then hop over next door at St. Laurn Hotel to end all cravings.

You would often find business associates, large group of friends and families taking advantage of the restaurant’s facilities at odd hours. The place is often quiet which makes it ideal for those power lunches where you crack a major deal over a plate of creamy risotto. Décor is masculine and earthy with strong contemporary influence. Enjoy your meal at the bar with a glass of scotch or recline in the cosy leather couches and reflect over your day.
