Executive Chef Jean Christophe Basseau aims to satisfy every palate with the very best of International and Indian cuisine. The informal 30s style Suryamahal is open all day. The menu here is a fusion of light Western, Mediterranean and Thai style dishes. Chandni, the courtyard for open air dining, hosts evenings of traditional Indian music and dance. At Udaimahal, guests dine by candlelight on a rich variety of traditional, Rajasthani and North Indian fare in regal surroundings.

It is also possible to lunch around the main swimming pool or in the Spa Courtyard. Or there's the option of ordering round the clock from the privacy of your room, suite or private dining pavilion. More adventurous guests can take a picnic lunch basket onto a private gondola. Or even, most decadent of all, take a party of friends to cocktails or dinner on the Bhagwanti Royal Barge, floating to the islands across Lake Pichola. You will eat like a Maharana. The Udaivilas chefs trained directly under the few chefs to royalty that exist in Rajasthan today. The cosy bar offers a fine selection of wines, spirits and cigars.
