Dine & Lounge

Two Restaurants, a Bar and a Lounge Car

The social heart of the Palace on Wheels lies in its richly adorned common areas — hand-painted frescoes, antique mirrors, carved wood panels and brocade-upholstered chairs that recall the dining halls of Rajput palaces.

The Restaurants

Maharaja & Maharani

Two on-board restaurants serve a daily-changing menu — Rajasthani specialities, Mughlai and North Indian classics, plus Continental and Chinese dishes. Vegetarian, Jain, gluten-free and other dietary needs are catered with notice.
