    Again, on December 25th, I went to SkyHigh for the second time, and this time, I invited my parents since they had never been to a restaurant above all in the heights and in the skies like SkyHigh. It was a very calm, relaxed atmosphere, with excellent service and very professional, as always! My parents and I were delighted and happy. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. I will definitely go back again.

    We went to Squarer 1682 for Christmas dinner. On this day, restaurants in hotels are the major choices. Square 1682 did well with the opportunity. The food was good - Red Snapper and Prime rib. The service was friendly and as attentive as a full house allows/ The wait staff worked as a team and deli
