🇿🇦🇵🇹 HERITAGE DAY AT VAMILIA — DIFFERENT CULTURES. ONE AMAZING TABLE. ❤️

Tomorrow we celebrate something that makes South Africa truly special — our incredible mix of cultures, traditions, food, music, stories and people.

At Vamilia, we’re incredibly proud of our Portuguese heritage and the flavours we bring to the South African table. From flame-grilled chicken and peri-peri to prawns, Trinchado, Rissoles, Espetada and all the homemade sauces that come out of our kitchen — this is food rooted in tradition, family and sharing. 🇵🇹🔥

But Heritage Day is bigger than any one culture.

It’s about celebrating all of us. 🇿🇦

Zulu. Xhosa. Afrikaans. English. Portuguese. Indian. Cape Malay. Sotho. Tswana. Venda. Ndebele. Tsonga — and every other beautiful culture that makes South Africa what it is.

So tomorrow, come celebrate with us at Vamilia.

🎉 HERITAGE DAY CHALLENGE:
Arrive dressed in your traditional or heritage-inspired attire and we’ll welcome you with a complimentary shot on us. 🥃❤️
18+ only. For non-drinkers, drivers and younger guests, we’ll gladly make it a non-alcoholic welcome instead.

Bring the family. Bring your friends. Wear your colours. Share a table. Eat well. Laugh loudly. Celebrate where you come from.

📍 Vamilia Portuguese Restaurant
29 Miller Road, Gordon’s Bay

🇿🇦 Proudly South African.
🇵🇹 Proudly Portuguese.
❤️ Proudly Vamilia.

Different cultures. Different stories. One table.

🍭❤️ WE HAVE A WINNER! ❤️🍭

Our Sweetest Vamilia Give-Away has officially found its new home… and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the result. 🥰

A massive CONGRATULATIONS to beautiful young Zara! 🎉🍬

Zara and her wonderful family have become regular supporters of Vamilia, and seeing that enormous smile when she collected her hamper made this whole competition worthwhile. ❤️

And Zara has already given something back to us too…

She created her very own piece of artwork for the restaurant — complete with a Portuguese rooster and a big “Portugal! Vamilia ❤️” — and that little masterpiece means more to us than she probably realises. 🇵🇹🐓

This is what Vamilia was always meant to be about.

Not simply tables, food and transactions.

It’s about families, friendships, children laughing, people coming back, memories being made and a community growing around us.

Thank you to everyone who entered, everyone who shared the competition, everyone who came through for a meal, and especially to the generous person who donated this incredible hamper in the first place. 🙏

And Zara…

Enjoy every single sweet! 😂🍭🍫
Something tells us that hamper may not last very long!

From all of us at Vamilia — congratulations, superstar. ❤️

🇵🇹 TAKE TUESDAY OFF COOKING. WE’VE GOT YOU. 🔥

Close the laptop. Leave the pots in the cupboard. Bring your favourite people to Vamilia and let Chef Tony take care of supper. ❤️

Think flame-grilled Portuguese chicken covered in our homemade sauces. Prawns finished in lemon butter. Tender beef fillet Trinchado in our signature sauce that takes around four hours to prepare.

Add hand-cut chips or Uncle Tony’s Rice, pour something cold, and settle in. 🤤

Date night. Family supper. Catch-up with friends.

Whatever your Tuesday looks like, make it a little more Portuguese. 🇵🇹

Good food. A warm welcome. And someone else doing the dishes. 😉

🌟🎨 VAMILIA SUPPORTS LOCAL ARTISTS 🎨🌟

At Vamilia, we love creating a warm, beautiful space for our guests — and now that space has become even more special thanks to these stunning original artworks by Penny V. ❤️

Penny is a talented local retired artist, and we are proud to display her beautiful original oil paintings in the restaurant. Each piece is full of colour, texture and character, and they have added such a lovely touch to the Vamilia atmosphere.

But these paintings are here for more than just decoration…

They are also available for purchase, and we would love to help support Penny by giving her artwork the exposure it deserves.

🖼️ Original oil paintings
🎨 By local artist Penny V
💰 Prices range from R1 000 to R1 500

So next time you visit Vamilia, have a look around, enjoy the art, and if a piece speaks to you, let us know. You may just find the perfect painting for your home, office or as a meaningful gift.

Supporting local is not just about food — it’s about people, passion, creativity and community. 🙏

Good food. Great art. Strong community. ❤️

🔥🍖 FEATURE DISH: VAMILIA BBQ RIBS 🍖🔥

These are not bought-in ribs.

They’re prepared from scratch in our own kitchen, with the same love and care we put into everything at Vamilia. ❤️

We take beautiful pork loin ribs, slow-cook them until they’re unbelievably tender, then finish them over the flame with our signature homemade Vamilia BBQ sauce until they’re sticky, caramelised and absolutely packed with flavour.

The result?

🔥 Fall-off-the-bone tender
🔥 Flame-grilled to finish
🔥 Covered in our house-made BBQ sauce
🔥 Served with your choice of side

And we’ve genuinely lost count of how many guests have told us:

“Those are some of the best ribs I’ve ever eaten.” ❤️

Choose your appetite:

🍖 500g Vamilia BBQ Ribs — R189
🍖 1kg Vamilia BBQ Ribs — R349

The 1kg is made for sharing with your Vamilia…

Although we’re definitely not judging if you decide otherwise. 😂

Pair them with Uncle Tony’s Rice, hand-cut chips, salad or bread, grab something cold to drink and settle in.

📍 Vamilia Portuguese Restaurant
29 Miller Road, Gordon’s Bay

Made from scratch. Slow-cooked with patience. Finished over flame. Served with love. ❤️
