“Since we pride ourselves in delivering beyond expectations, our team are overjoyed by the announcement. Especially considering that people travelled from all corners of Cape Town to experience our offerings during Restaurant Week – diners we are sure will become regular customers.”

Restaurant Week was held from 29 September to 5 November and sees participating restaurants developing a special menu for diners to enjoy at discounted rates. Diners are encouraged to rate their experience allowing the top restaurants to be voted as such by those who enjoy eating out rather than a panel of judges.
