Dinning
Bokkura Coffee Shop
Boutique coffees and teas are available to go or right there laced with cyan vistas of pool, sea and sky, and the clean contemporary lines of the outlet itself. It is a "buzzy" place to enjoy a little bit of the city by the beach as you hear the now familiar hiss and froth of a cappuccino in creation. All fortified by daily changing pastries and homemade ice creams by the scoop or cone.
Kandooma Cafe Breakfast
Greet the day in the “Big Barnacle”! Wide archways let in the sunshine and atoll views. Also breezing through, are the views, news, weather and music provided by the “bananas in the morning” breakfast show on Radio Kandooma. Fresh Juices, fresh ground coffee, loose leaf teas, an international selection of breakfasts and attendant chefs are ready to receive instructions on just how easy you would like your eggs over.
Pool Side All Day Menu
Relax! It’s too hot to do anything else, except perhaps to decide whether to order from a menu of fresh salads, sandwiches, wood-fired pizza or pick up a choice cut of eye fillet or lamb loin to be grilled by yourself under the shade of a coconut grove, pausing briefly for a sip of your favourite beverage, chatting to fellow sun loungers with grillers. Then it’s back to the shade of the umbrella from where the searing blue of the atoll can best be appreciated.
The Lounge
Morning coffee, Afternoon tea, catch the dive buzz in late afternoon as divers gather to watch themselves on the day’s dive video, cocktails to watch the sunset, bar top games, light snacks and then perhaps catch Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s or Cary Grant in North by Northwest as some of our classic movies under the stars on the beach three nights’ in a week after dinner.
Candooma Cafe Dinner
The ‘bright and breezy’ big barnacle becomes a warm cave of soft glowing light presenting an intimate mood under the stars visible through the skylight 60 feet above. Chill out sounds of Radio Kandooma Bleu add to this almost surrealistic romantic environment. A banquet of travel inspired Mediterranean dishes spiced with flavours of Asia is supplemented by chefs busily working tandoor ovens, teppan grills and rottiseurs..
The Kitchen
Some hotels take diners into the kitchen to sit at “the chefs table”. We’ve brought the kitchen out and put it in the middle of the restaurant to create an exquisitely elegant dining experience with the best view on the island. Diners can choose to sit in elegant comfort, looking out over Kandooma channel, out on the beach, feet in the sand, or engage the chefs in conversation by reserving a seat at one of the two main kitchen ranges. The food will be Mediterranean-Thai with a good representation of sea food. About 15 paces away is the Wine Room where a choice of 250 wines will see that some indecision will be encountered in selecting a preferred label.
The Deck
For a slightly bohemian end to the day, walk past the Wine Room (resist the urge to have a quick browse or you will miss the sunset) and up the circular stairs to The Deck. An expanse of teak planking covering rooftop of The Kitchen liberally sprinkled with low tables, startlingly blue cushions, bean bags and monolithic granite planters of greenery. Having freshly showered off a day of sunshine and saltwater, it is the ideal place to worship a sunset and the Mojitos of our resident mixologist. After sundown the area is lit entirely by Moroccan lanterns and the stars. Perfectly ideal to continue with cocktails and graze on our tapas menu.
Take Out and Delivery
When back from a hectic three-dive day, the only thing you might want to do is flop on the lounger and have a pizza in the comfort of your Kandooma home. Muster up enough energy to drag out the compendium and look up what is available. You have a choice of ordering from a list of simple but utterly tempting bites. You will also have a choice of picking it up at the agreed time or having it delivered for a one off price. Plates and cutlery are all in your room. Where ever possible, we use reusable containers but where disposable is unavoidable we use biodegradable food containers. Three different menu styles serve three different times from breakfast, all day and night owl. All depends on which end of the day you live in.
Wine room - 240 labels at take away prices or with restaurant corkage.
