Georgina Recommends – Amrita Restaurant, Shanti Som

A few weeks ago I discovered the gorgeous Amrita Restaurant at the Wellbeing Retreat Shanti Som, up the road from La Cañada. Although the retreat is only 20 minutes from central Marbella it feels a world away and is a beautiful place to take some time torelax, unwind and enjoy a delicious, but healthy meal.

In the review in The Independent in July, journalist Jane Anderson called the food at Amrita “top-notch” and commented “If there was ever proof that healthy food can taste wonderful, it’s in [Amrita’s] Asian-Med fusion menus.” I couldn’t agree more and it’s open 7 days a week for lunch, so everyone can go and give it a try.

Here’s my review of Amrita Restaurant.
