On the evening of our visited we opted for the 5 course degustation menu which included 3 additional (and complimentary) Chef surprises, as well as some items from the à la carte menu.
Starter from the à la carte menu: Quail, chermoula (incredibly tasty Moroccan marinade), spring onion and capsicum (peppers)
Starter from the Degustation menu: Open mushroom lasagne with cheese fondue, Shimenji mushrooms and pine nuts.
Main from the à la carte menu: Pork, celery, apple and mustard. Lip smacking!
Main from the Degustation menu: Springbok, butternut, baby onions, zucchini.
The 5 course degustation menu is priced at R325 per person (excluding wines) or R435 per person (including wines) and offers exceptional value for money. The same can be said for the à la carte menu, priced at R190 per person for 3 courses and R150 per person for 2 courses.
