Step into the gastronomic heart of the hotel and take your seat in an exclusive, hidden dining space. Watch in wonder as dishes are prepared right before your eyes—then uncover the inspiration behind each creation.

Inspired by the seasons and the desire to reduce our footprint on this wonderful land, the chefs have put their minds and attentions on sourcing, when possible, local organically grown produce that has the smallest impact on our environment. They deal with likeminded farmers and producers who share a desire that our children must also be able to share this land’s harvest with their children. They have excluded meat and fish intentionally and chosen to showcase and celebrate the wonderous bounty of Western Cape agriculture.

    We have been to many fine dining experiences across the cape and the world. I am happy to say that this has been, by far, our most intimate and special experience of them all. To have a talented chef, and team, prepare a meal & journey that has such a personal connection is a very unique experience. Thank you to Chef Isaac for sharing his memories through the food & Lazarus for the superb hosting. Will certainly be back.

    Awesome dinner and wine pairings. Chef Isaac and Lazarus were great and made the experience wonderful. We were also with people who were from South Africa and communicate how authentic the food was.
