  • test kitchen was outstanding, tho the fact that its located in a previously notoriously disadvantaged area that has been repurposed for a predominantly young, upwardly mobile white crowd might sour your mood somewhat. We went for lunch, not sure if the menu changes of an evening.

    other notables include:
    http://thepotluckclub.co.za/ - a bit fiddly but worth the faff

    http://www.nelsons-eye.co.za/ - spit and sawdust place serving steaks since the bad old days

    http://lapetiteferme.co.za/index.php/restaurant - old fashioned but you'll be hard pressed to find a prettier setting.

    Book now to avoid dissapointment.

    recommend you air b'n b it - we crashed here: https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/860900 for a week - short walk to the beach, not that i'd advise getting in the water. it's cocking freezing. make sure you hire a comfy car. avoid township tours at all costs. what time of year you thinking of heading out?

  • Cheers,that looks like a good list of places to start with. We are looking to go end of May beginning of June 2016

    Aiming for two-three days in Cape Town when we arrive so will book Test Kitchen for our 2nd night. It looks very much like the kind of place we'd enjoy.
