World’s first Banting restaurant opens in Cape Town

Last Thursday I had an exclusive peek into the new Banting Kitchen in Green Point, 47 Main Road (in front of Cape Royale Hotel), Cape Town.

Tim Noakes and his many Banting fans will be extremely happy about this new eatery. The entire menu is based on Banting ingredients, ranging from home smoked salmon (delicious!), mussels in cream, lasagna, steak to the always popular cauli-mash through to dessert. As is to be expected, the dishes are obviously very rich given all the cream and butter – and as you know where there is cream and butter – it is always delicious.

Two things stood out for me – the bread and the dessert. On our arrival we were offered bread and butter and I have to admit that I was somewhat sceptical about the bread – I’ve have tried to bake Tim Noakes’s bread – and it was not pleasant. But the bread I had at The Banting Kitchen was surprisingly good and tasty. Banters who miss their slice of bread will find this a real treat.
