La Vista is the multi-cuisine restaurant at Cama Hotel in Ahmedabad.
Decor Cama Hotel was started in 1960 making it Ahmedabad's oldest hotel and, though its main restaurant was renamed more than a decade ago, the renovations cleverly retain its old world charm. The tables and chairs are reminiscent of colonial houses and clubs, and the wood floor, wood paneled walls, rafters, beams and even a sandstone fireplace add to the charm. The buffets are laid out on centre tables set below a wrought iron chandelier. As the name suggests La Vista is known for its view - tables set by the windows look out to the pool and the lawns.
Food La Vista has good European food and enjoys a long-standing reputation for its cakes, pastry and breads. They have classic European soups like Tomato Egg Drop, Minestrone and a vegetarian French Onion. If you don't mind waiting you can order the Slow-Roasted Tomato Soup which is their house special. Among other soups, the Asian Thin Soup with vegetables or chicken is quite tasty.
The signature dish of La Vista is the Cama Special Chicken which comprises chicken breast grilled with flavourful chicken livers and olives. Together with the well-grilled chicken, much attention is paid to the sides which include neatly laid out potatoes and crunchy vegetables. The restaurant serves Chicken a la Kiev which is one of the classic Continental dishes on the La Vista menu, but this is only recommended if you are here for a leisurely meal as it requires much cooking for the frozen butter to melt in the heart of the breaded chicken breast roulade. If you are watching calories, you could order the Grilled Chicken Steak with potatoes and boiled veggies or Roast Chicken with Mash and Jus. Another Cama classic is the Baked Fish Florentine with spinach and cheese. They also offer good old Fish and Chips - fried breaded fillets of fish with potato chips.
For vegetarians, the Cannelloni Florentine has pasta tubes generously filled with ricotta and spinach, with sauce and melting cheese on top. The Lasagne Verdue is another vegetarian dish with vegetables between pasta sheets and cheese toppings. They also do reasonably good North Indian food like Paneer Tikka Lababdar, Bhuna Gosht and Murg Khurchan. The chef's special is the Kheema Mutter. They also offer some Parsi dishes on request like Patrani Machchi, Khara Papeta ni Murgi, Dhansak, Keema par Endu or Keema Khichdi. They do a superb Caramel Custard and also a good take on the Rasmalai, while chocolate lovers may like their Chocolate Mousse.
Plus and minus La Vista is a good place for a leisurely meal of European fare like Prawn Cocktails, Slow-roasted Tomato Soup, Chicken ala Kiev and Caramel Custard, with reasonably good coffee. However, not everything here is consistently good.
