The Anam Cam Ranh, one of Vietnam’s most elegant beachfront resorts, is turning up the heat with its new private gourmet barbeque experiences. Guests staying in the resort’s Two- and Three-Bedroom Hilltop Pool Villas can now enjoy exclusive in-villa barbeque feasts, complete with a personal chef and waiter.

The resort’s new Asian and Western BBQ menus promise far more than the usual grill fare. Each spread is a full culinary journey packed with starters, seafood, meats, vegetables, condiments, and desserts, all served by your private pool with stunning sea views.

The Asian BBQ begins with sautéed Vietnamese beef and seafood, followed by a fragrant seafood tom yum soup. From the grill come flavour-packed dishes like Grilled Tiger Prawns with chili marinade, Lemongrass Cobia with broccolini chili salsa, Grilled Cuttlefish with turmeric sauce, Chicken Satay, Grilled Pork Rib with shrimp paste, and even Ocean Giant Clam of the Day. Condiments range from green chili and passion fruit fish sauce to salt, black pepper, and lime. Dessert sweetens the meal with chocolate brownie, yogurt mousse, and passion fruit entremet cake.

The Western BBQ raises the bar further, featuring Iberico Pulled Pork Tacos, Charcoal-Grilled Romaine Salad, and Green Abalone and Spinach Soup. The main grill includes Ocean Oyster with pistachio, Smoked Beef Short Rib, Grilled Lobster Tail with Jack Daniel’s cheese sauce, Black Angus Striploin, Lamb Rack with garlic butter bread, and German Sausages with pomme purée. To finish, there’s white wine mousse with yuzu compote and mango curd with coconut dacquoise.

“These menus may be inspired by the humble barbeque, but the fare they afford is anything but your typical sausages or burger patties,” said Laurent Myter, Group General Manager of The Anam Group. “The spacious Hilltop Pool Villa kitchens are designed for this kind of feast, best enjoyed beside your private pool.”

Perfect for families and groups, the Hilltop Pool Villas range from 232sqm to 267sqm and include bright bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, kitchens, and living rooms that open onto private pools overlooking the ocean. The surrounding landscape, with traditional sampans gliding across the bay and the “Song Lo” headland rising nearby, adds to the charm.

Guests can also head to the resort’s Indochine Restaurant on Saturday nights for a seafood barbeque buffet with live music, unlimited soft drinks, and a fire show.

The in-villa Asian BBQ Menu and Western BBQ Menu are priced at 2,730,000 VND and 3,100,000 VND per person respectively and must be booked at least 24 hours in advance. The Saturday Seafood BBQ is open to all guests, priced at 1,250,000 VND per adult and 570,000 VND per child.

JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar Unveils EL – The Portal to Elsewhere

JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar has added a bold new chapter to the city’s luxury social scene with the launch of EL – The Portal to Elsewhere, a rooftop destination that redefines elevation through design, flavor, and imagination. More than a bar, EL is an immersive experience, a state of being that invites guests to rise above the ordinary.

The journey begins on the staircase leading upward, setting the tone for an experience suspended between reality and reverie. Once at the top, guests are welcomed into a world where architecture, light, and rhythm converge, creating an atmosphere both intimate and exhilarating.

EL unfolds across three distinct yet interconnected zones. The BubbEl Room offers an elegant Champagne experience perfect for quiet celebration. Moving further, the Indoor Bar becomes the heart of the venue, where premium spirits and elevated cocktails invite connection and indulgence. Finally, the Open Sky Dining area opens beneath a canopy of stars, offering global flavors and refined dining that feel effortlessly chic.

Driven by the philosophy of “Flavors That Travel,” EL’s menu acts as a passport for the palate, weaving together influences from Japan, South America, and the Mediterranean. Dishes like citrus-infused tiraditos, artisanal grills, and shareable tapas are designed for evenings that linger, refined yet approachable, bold yet balanced.

The bar experience, aptly titled “Elevated Cocktails for Another World,” takes mixology to new heights with creative spirit-forward concoctions. Guests can explore across three moods—Citrusy & Fruity, Floral & Herbal, and Strong & Stirred, each representing a journey of flavor and imagination. Highlights include the truffle-infused Enchanted, the smoky and tart Topamine, the aromatic Elixir, and the warming, nutty Asgardian, each crafted to transport guests from the familiar to the extraordinary.

Speaking on the launch, Sachin Mylavarapu, General Manager, JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar, said, “With EL, we’re reimagining what a bar experience can mean within modern luxury. JW Marriott Sahar has always been synonymous with exceptional hospitality, but this launch takes that promise to new heights, literally and creatively. EL is designed to become more than a venue; it’s an experience that evokes emotion, curiosity, and connection through flavour, music, and design.”

More than just a new venue, EL reflects the hotel’s spirit of evolution, bold, dynamic, and deeply attuned to its guests. It symbolizes JW Marriott Sahar’s ongoing commitment to crafting experiences that are timeless yet forward-looking, rooted in excellence yet alive with imagination.

As Mumbai’s skyline glows beneath, EL stands as the city’s newest address for those who seek something beyond the expected, a place where evenings don’t just unfold, they ascend.

EL – The Portal to Elsewhere. Elevate Yourself.
