Topi Restaurant 

From the mind of Sauma chef and restauranteur Gurps Bagga, comes Topi – a flavourful exploration of India’s regional cuisines.

From fish curries with Shark Bay Barramundi to fresh Manjimup turmeric in their signature Margarita, the Topi experience is best enjoyed with a large group of friends and family.
