Stylish yet casual

Experience the modern interpretation of a classical bistro... the new UBG! Stylish yet casual the new "bistro-style" UBG opened its doors after a month long facelift. The decor is warm and avant-garde with ambient yellow lighting to suit any mood.

Subtle changes, for instance, the earthy tones on the freshly painted walls, the pristine white crockery and cutlery in varied shapes, or the funky purple and orange glasses will be noticed by those who have visited frequently, but it is the menu that really stands out. "Our strategy is to focus on product attributes that have made us popular", states Operations Manager, Nishan Silva, "good food, with a great ambience".

The new a la carte menu offers a wide selection of cuisine ranging from the best pizzas and pasta in town prepared by the Executive Chef Kumar, a specialist in Italian cuisine to Tex-mex, Thai or Middle Eastern for the more adventurous. For that matter, any food you might fancy is on offer, all prepared with the finest quality ingredients.

Start your meal with a light "new age" tapas or piping hot soup whether it be a spicy. The menu also contains a splattering of Classics and healthy options. The Classic Caesar is a must try, although the Tex-Mex Chicken Salad and Greek Stack compete for poll position.

The new a la carte menu, designed to cater for a meal at any time of the day, is even able to satisfy that craving for a wholesome burger or sandwich.

UBG's executive lunch buffet satisfies the corporate executive looking for quick service and a very satisfying a la minute dining experience.

Lunch whether buffet or a la carte could also be a relaxed affair if you so wish. Catch a glimpse of the latest global stock trends as you enter the restaurant on the plasma screen or switch off from the stresses of the day while tucking into the revamped a la minute buffet with a generous grill and roast section, healthy salads and soups and diversity to suit any palate with friends, family or business colleagues.

A highlight of the new UBG is an eight-seat teak wood feature table with designer high back wooden chairs, which needs to be booked in advance in case you fancy a more elaborate meal or perhaps wish to celebrate a special occasion in style.

Kids are also most welcome at UBG and can select from their very own "special kids menu" and enjoy soft drinks free of charge while busying themselves with crayons and fun activities.

And, if that's not enough, enjoy the vibrant buzz of the restaurant on a Friday night at the Union Bar while listening to the sultry tunes of Flame.
