A celebration of Norwegian salmon on our Epicurean À La Carte Menu.

Delicately prepared Norwegian salmon is paired with vibrant mango salsa, bringing a bright, tropical freshness to the dish. A refined mussel beurre blanc adds depth and richness, while fig leaf oil introduces a subtle aromatic note. Finished with mango achar, the dish balances freshness, richness and gentle acidity in every bite.

A celebration of premium South African beef on our Epicurean À La Carte Menu.

Grass-fed beef fillet is paired with slow-braised short rib, bringing together two distinct expressions of the same ingredient. A light Parmesan espuma adds richness without weight, while pickled potato introduces a delicate acidity that cuts through the depth of the meat. Finished with freshly grated horseradish, the dish is lifted with a subtle heat.

One of the dishes currently featured on our Epicurean Selection Menu.

Yellowtail pastrami served with nasturtium pesto, lemon labneh, Granny Smith apple, riverbank foraged herbs, pickled mustard seeds, and trout caviar. The richness of the fish is balanced by bright citrus, fresh herbs, crisp apple, and subtle bursts of salinity throughout.

A dish that feels light, layered, and thoughtfully balanced.

Father’s Day is coming, and we think Dad deserves more than a braai this year.
On Sunday 21 June, we’re celebrating in collaboration with Boschendal, with our Epicurean Selection Menu, a bespoke dining experience where each guest curates their own journey from our Chef’s Journey dishes. Guests are welcome to join us for anything from a single course or dessert to a full dining experience.

On arrival, guests will be welcomed with a glass of Boschendal bubbles, and each father will receive a complimentary Ugly Bourbon nip to take home.

Our Ugly Bourbon is fat washed with the milk loaf brioche from our bread course, giving it a warm, buttery depth and a soft, rounded finish that carries the character of the kitchen in every sip.

Seats are limited. Reserve yours early. Book via the link in bio or email [email protected]
