The winning formula that makes up Sunday lunch at Le Méridien

For the same price as last year of €25.95 per person, buffet lunches are being offered with a variety of antipasti and cold cuts, mouth-watering hot recipes, a selection of meats from the carvery, pastas and scrumptious desserts.

Mastering typical Mediterranean specialties does not keep Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa from exploiting the overseas' classics with more northerly flavours.

The signature cheese fondue, introduced last year, will make a return. Dip the crunchiest

French bread into an incomparable blend of the best melted cheese - a great way to soothe post-summer blues and to warm up both the mood and the stomach.

Le Méridien boasts high quality standards in terms of cuisine. Freshness of produce, variety and abundance is the motto of their creative kitchen brigade, led by Executive Head Chef Reuben Grixti.

A good meal doesn't go without a good wine. Take away the hassle of adding beverages to your bill and go for the all-inclusive beverage package for €33.95 per adult. Diners will be given unlimited access to a vast choice of culinary options, as well as having free flowing wine, beer, soft drinks and juices. And if you've over-indulged, don't drink and drive, why not stay at the hotel overnight? Call 2311 2111/2/3 to book your preferred accommodation.

Le Méridien also take the little ones into consideration.

 Not only is entertainment provided but also children up to 7 years of age can help themselves at the buffet for free, whilst parents will only pay €12 per head for youngsters between 8 and 15 years old.
