    As a South African I feel the prices are too high for our family. I feel there should be cheaper options with maybe non gourmet food. But the food tasted good.

    This is the best kept secret of Stellenbosch. Beautiful secluded location on a pond, wonderful hearty country food cooked by a young female chef. Highly recommended!
