Summer is a special time for children and family members to have fun together. Swimming at a pool after having a good lunch is a great idea for the family this summer. Hotel Equatorial in Ho Chi Minh City’s District 5 offers an enjoyable lunch of top Vietnamese dishes, and a family day at the pool. Every guest having lunch at Chit Chat at the Cafe will have the privilege of using the most beautiful swimming pool in the city till 6 p.m. On offer is a wide variety of local and Western cuisines, such as oysters in creamed spinach and cheese, grilled scampi, grilled fresh oyster with bacon and tomato sauce, home-smoked honey-glazed ham, and roasted prime rib with Yorkshire pudding and red wine.

The hotel says that diners can also enjoy Vietnamese dishes that are usually sold on pavements in Vietnam but with a vastly superior hygiene. The cost at US$21 per adult and US$12.60 per child (6-12 years) includes a free flow of house wine, Tiger beer, and soft drink, and guests can enjoy the relaxed and comfortable environment. The aim of this program is to create a place for relaxation after a hard working week or to prepare for the week ahead. For more information, contact:
