Nine reasons not to leave for dinner

Every kitchen is run by people we hired rather than licensed, and every menu changes when the supply does.

Grand dining · $$$$

The Mubralta Room

Trolleys, a soufflé, and a room that has looked much the same since 1911. Jackets are welcome.

Cocktails · $$$

Under the marble dome, with a pianist from eight and a martini poured at the table.

Brasserie · $$$

Less formal, same kitchen. Oysters, steak frites, and a window on the water.

Breakfast & tea · $$

Breakfast until eleven, tea at four, and palms that have been here longer than anyone on staff.

Wine · $$$$

Eleven thousand bottles, a sommelier who will find you something under eighty dollars, and no snobbery.

Practical

Every kitchen keeps an allergen matrix at the pass and every menu is available in large print. Tell whoever seats you and they will tell the kitchen.

Welcome everywhere except the gaming floor and the bars after 8 PM. There is a proper children's menu rather than three fried things.

Full vegetarian and vegan options at every venue, not a single substitution, and gluten-free bread made rather than bought in.

There is no dress code anywhere. We ask for smart dress in one room late in the evening and we ask it kindly.
