Grands Suites Hotel: Perfect place to relax, eat and soak up the idyllic scenery of Malta | Short & City breaks | Travel
Moving onto starters there was the option to choose between octopus tentacles or arancin bolognese – of course I had to opt for the latter.
Although I enjoyed it, I couldn’t help being curious about the octopus tentacles my dining companion had chosen – after all octopus is one of the main seafood delicacies of the Mediterranean kitchen.
Washing the starter down with a glass of crisp white wine, the option for the evening main meal was rib-eye steak served with potato fondant, asparagus and jus red wine.
Dessert was a classic chocolate fondant served with vanilla ice cream – a perfect way to end the meal.
From the combination of a picturesque view, the delicious food and the staff customer service it made for such a great perfect end to the day.
The next day the hotel had organised a day out on a beautiful yacht which took us to three different spots: Kalankka bay, otherwise known as Marsaxlokk, Il Ponta tal Griegal and St Thomas bay, munxar.
At each spot had the opportunity to swim out and explore areas of the sea – the water felt amazing in the 39 degree heat.
