Loved for its contemporary spins on classic dinners, the generous breakfast buffet and superb Afternoon Tea, the restaurant is suited to all occasions and times of day. But it’s the four-course winter dinner special that is particularly appealing right now. A cauliflower salad to start; followed by a soup course of potato and salmon velouté; for mains, choose between either grilled linefish or a loin, belly and braised lamb croquette; dessert is a spiced blueberry and apple crumble, all of which will certainly go down wonderfully.

The special R245 for two courses
R275 for three courses
About the restaurant Situated within a state-of-the- art building at Glenelly Estate, this hidden gem is owned by chef-patron Christophe Dehosse, who together with head chef Alex Rykaart concocts superb French-inspired dishes that guests can enjoy within the warm, elegant interiors.
On chilly days, it’s rather nice to cosy up to the fireplace, or gather in the lovely wine-tasting area above the restaurant; but if the sun is out, sit at one of the long wooden tables on the outside deck under the pergola, and enjoy beautiful views of the vineyards and surrounding hills while treating yourself to their two- or three-course winter set menu. Dishes change regularly but could include braised pork cheeks with butter beans; hake and tarragon mousse; and a honey poached pear and chocolate tart.
When Tuesday – Saturday, 11.30am – 2.30pm
Friday – Saturday, 6.30pm – 8.30pm
Special valid until 31 August 2019
