Restaurant Al Mar

THE RESTAURANT, AS PART OF THE GRAND HOTEL ROMANA (ROMANA BEACH RESORT), OWES ITS HIGH STANDARDS IN FOOD PREPARATION TO THE ALREADY ADOPTED AND CONFIRMED STANDARD OF THE PARENT HOTEL.

Since the restaurant is located on the busy beach, the menu had to be created to cater to the needs of the beach guests, at least until sunset. It therefore offers typical bistro food, pizzas, burgers, etc. but in a highly professional variant. As soon as the sun goes down, the guests change and then Al Mar turns into a “true” restaurant, as befits it because it belongs to a high-class hotel.

A modern ambience with a lot of white and discreet lighting, decorated with meticulously cared-for greenery is perfect for relaxation and enjoying predominantly Mediterranean cuisine based on local ingredients.

TECHNICAL INSPECTION

In the varied offer of food and drinks, the emphasis is on local Croatian products prepared in accordance with strict hygienic requirements. With a pleasant atmosphere and fresh food, Al Mar tries to create a welcoming and relaxing experience for everyone. They continuously work to improve quality by systematically educating and implementing standard operating procedures.

HOW TO OBTAIN
THE EXQUISITE CERTIFICATE

THE EXQUISITE CERTIFICATE IS A MARK OF DISTINCTION, RECOGNIZING THE SUPERIOR QUALITY AND STANDARDS OF YOUR HOTEL OR RESTAURANT.

The Exquisite Certificate is awarded after three inspection processes conducted by a panel of distinguished experts in the gastronomy and hospitality sector.

The first process involves thorough hygiene control and management within the facility, followed by detailed supervision in the food processing department.

The second process of control focuses on top-level safety both inside and outside the facility itself. It includes a thorough inspection of hygiene conditions within the facility, as well as control of the processes of receiving, storing, and processing food.

The third process refers to food preparation, serving, and the organoleptic characteristics of the food, as well as the final procedure of evaluating the overall hospitality service.

A prerequisite for conducting these three inspection processes includes ensuring top-level safety both inside and around the facility.

EXQUISITE AS A BRAND

EXQUISITE BRAND is part of the EXQUISITE program implemented across the Republic of Croatia. The program is based on the principles of safety, traceability, and business sustainability. Its verification process leads to the awarding of the ‘International Standard for Service Quality and Hygiene’ certificate.
