A good Pinsa starts long before it reaches the oven. 🌿

For Christian Wilderer, South Africa’s first Pinsaiolo Master Chef, it’s about flavour, freshness, and choosing the right ingredients — sometimes picked straight from our garden.

Fresh herbs, seasonal inspiration, and that signature crispy Pinsa base come together at our restaurants.

Come join us, take a seat, and taste the craft.

“Gut Ding braucht Weile.” – Helmut Wilderer
Good things take time.

At Wilderer, this belief is at the heart of everything we do. True craft cannot be rushed — it takes patience, passion and respect for the process.

From our first distillation to the final pour, every bottle carries the spirit of Helmut’s philosophy.

What is Pinsa? 🍕

Pinsa is a Roman-style base with a signature oval shape, crispy bite and soft centre.

What makes it a winner? It’s lighter than traditional pizza, easy to enjoy, and the perfect base for delicious toppings — from classic Italian flavours to something a little more local.

Once you try it, you’ll understand why Pinsa is becoming a favourite.

Before the first glass is poured, before the first plate leaves the kitchen, before the doors open for the day — there are people already making things happen.

Every guest experience is made up of small details, steady hands and familiar faces.

These are just a few of the faces behind Wilderer — with many more playing their part behind the scenes and on the floor each day.

So here’s a quiet thank you to our team, helping carry the Wilderer name in their own way.

Winter Comfort with a Wilderer Twist 🍋

Introducing your new cold-weather favourite: Limoncello Roast Chicken with Herbs & Garlic — a golden, flavour-packed dish that brings the heat and citrus glow of our award-winning Wilderer Limoncello to the dinner table.

Why it works:
🔥 Limoncello caramelises beautifully, adding a subtle sweetness and bright lemon undertones that balance rich winter flavours.

Tip for home chefs:
Baste your roast chicken with a mix of Wilderer Limoncello, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and thyme. For extra indulgence, finish with a splash of cream for a silky, citrusy jus.
