Gourmet Guide Description

In the iconic Old Biscuit Mill in Woodstock, you’ll be welcomed by a sea of smiling faces. Behind the scenes, an ensemble of passionate chefs, led by the meticulous eye of head chef Nathan Clarke, orchestrate a symphony of gastronomic brilliance. The former fine-dining luxury of The Test Kitchen has been softened, with cutlery housed in pewter tankards on tables still covered in white linen. Humbling service elevates the dining experience. Passion and purpose resonate throughout, with each team member exuding enthusiasm and dedication. Here, the kitchen isn’t just a place of heat and pressure; it’s a vibrant stage where every beat is felt, creating an edible future.

Clarke’s journey from kitchen sculler to cooking maestro embodies the essence of this mentorship programme. Aspiring students learn under the tutelage of culinary luminary Luke Dale Roberts and his seasoned management team, being mentored and compensated for their dedication to mastering the craft.

From Cape Malay to Asian delights on two enticing menu options: indulge in the casual offerings of the à la carte menu featuring Wagyu burgers and comforting classics, or opt for the curated ‘Fully Fledged’ set menu. From the tantalising Korean-fried chicken with ponzu emulsion to the exquisite lobster bao accompanied by the city’s finest chips, every plate tells a story of craftsmanship and global inspiration. Savour the vivacious flavours of prawn dumplings immersed in fragrant broth, or the artistry of duck ravioli presented with understated elegance.

    Spent three nights in Cape Town and this was the highlight for me. We sat at the bar to eat and could see all the expertise, passion and work that was going into creating our meal for the evening. Had a great time and would definitely recommend it. From the moment we were greeted from our taxi, to the staff hosting us in the restaurant, then a nightcap in the sister restaurant recommended to us by the gentleman receiving and packing us off the experience was a delight.

    Very warm and friendly service. There was a distinct feeling of joy to work and team spirit. Food was very good. Portions could be smaller for tasting menu. It could have better kitchen ventilation so the windows could stay closed when windy and cold. Best wishes for continued success.

    Nice restaurant but my husband unfortunately has ended up with bad food poisoning! We think it might be the duck dish as I didn’t have that one. Such a shame as the food was really good!

    Excellent meal at the counter. The food was outstanding - we did the tasting menu. The service was equally wonderful.
