1. Main Menu
   1. Starters
      Keep it fresh, keep it local, keep it simple. This is what we try to do with each meal. Nothing comes out of a tin, so if something on our menu isn’t available, it’s because we couldn’t get an ingredient that day. As much as possible, we try to support local suppliers: our fruit, vegetables and flowers almost always come from nearby, herbs come from our very own garden. And
      we don’t over-elaborate or unnecessarily complicate recipes, because we like to respect the purity of our ingredients. We think food tastes better that way.

   2. Salads
      We put “special” into our specials. They change daily, because they depend on two things: creativity and availability. Sometimes we’re simply inspired to try something new. Sometimes we find meat or fish that’s normally difficult to come by. And sometimes a supplier will offer us something so interesting or unusual that, even if it’s a herb or a garnish, we’ll conjure up an entire
      meal around it.

   3. Mains
      These are a few of our favourite things. Recommendations are always personal, but here are the meals we most often choose for ourselves. The duck dishes – salad or main – which are our own creations, and which people drive from Cape Town for specially. The venison loin, which is a rare treat. The salmon, which we love preparing as much as we love eating. And, for vegetarians, the mushroom risotto, which is truly one of life’s simple pleasures.

   4. Meat
      Not all meats are created equal. So we handpick ours personally and almost daily at a local butcher in Paarl. Our beef is matured for at least 32 days. Our venison usually comes from our farm in the Namibian Kalahari and occasionally from the Karoo, depending on the time of year. We know what to look for and where to find it, and we make sure you’re served the best
      there is. Served with French fries, hasselback potato, potato wedges, potato and butternut dauphinoise or roast sweet potato.
