de Mondion Restaurant
Niched in the bastions of a fairy-tale, 17th Century Palazzo, The Xara
Palace Relais and Châteaux, lies a gastronomic jewel, the award-winning de
Mondion Restaurant.
Gourmet dining is taken to a new level by Executive Chef Kevin Bonello and
his talented brigade. Only the freshest and highest quality ingredients
are sourced and the most sensitive cooking methods utilised, to preserve
taste and authenticity in dishes so beautifully created as to be works of
art in their own right.
Complimenting these tantalising offerings, served in discreet and elegant
surroundings befitting Malta's most exclusive boutique Hotel, are the
sweeping panoramic views of the island from the restaurant's bastion
terraces. Let the fireworks that invariably adorn the summer skies,
enchant you as you dine - celebrate a day, impress your guests, treat
yourself - it will be an exquisitely unforgettable experience.
