Emma's Restaurant

Top choice in New Britain


The Gazelle International's restaurant may not win any design awards but the food is top notch. There are tropical seafood dishes: start with Peruvian ceviche and move onto grilled lobster or reef fish, also chicken and steaks and an excellent Indian menu – we recommend the fish Chettinad. The daily lunch special (four to five options) at K20 is great value.
