Perfect for a small birthday party, guests can hire the private King’s Landing table. Make sure to admire the hanging raven lamps while you relax on the expansive sofa, or pick up a book to read.
Watcher’s on the Wall: Just like the episodes of Game of Thrones, this indulgent Kit Kat shake will leave you desperately wanting more. Ice cream and chocolate sauce are blended with Kit Kat flakes to create a crunchy texture. Topped with a Kit Kat stick and drizzled in chocolate sauce, this rich concoction is a dessert in itself. Rs 170-plus
Get a taste of royalty by sitting on this life-size iron throne. As if this Insta opportunity wasn’t enough, a member of the staff will capture the moment on a Polaroid camera and give you the picture to keep!
Dornish Wine: Described as the ‘virgin wine that almost killed Daenerys’, this pomegranate juice mocktail is much safer than its screen equivalent. Named after the men who inhabit the Dorne region in J.R.R. Martin’s world, this beverage is deliciously fruity and is served in a heavy silver goblet fit for a king. Rs 155-plus
Lady of Winterfell: Make sure to dip your spoon deep into the four layers of this sweet delight. Frozen strawberry puree fills the bottom, leading up to vanilla ice cream topped with sweet whipped cream and decorated with chopped cherries as red as Lady of Winterfell’s hair. Rs 165-plus
Joffrey the Jerk Chicken: While its title is a humorous dig at King Joffrey Baratheon, this dish is no laughing matter. The jerk chicken is sweet and succulent after being marinated in teriyaki sauce, while the mashed potato is mixed with cream and chilli flakes to create a silky smooth texture with a hint of heat. Served with cooked cherry tomatoes, al dente broccoli, carrots, button mushrooms and baby corn, this plate is yum. Rs 265- plus
Don’t miss the decor details. Check out the hand-painted flags and dragon eggs as well as the ‘Hand of the King’ badges worn by the servers (below).
