Probably most well-known for Table Mountain, and lapped by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, the city offers some of the most spectacularly breathtaking dining spots in the country, and perhaps the world.
The city is home to an eclectic and vibrant population, with people of all races and languages, and a thriving gay community, which means that every taste is catered for. The mountain, which can be seen from most of the city bowl, is starkly contrasted with the dazzling waters of the ocean, and a short drive out of the city centre finds you in the famous Cape winelands.
A night out in this city, offers the diner a chance to get a taste of either part, or a mix of these different components. With the beachfronts and shopping areas thriving in the day, and the buzzing night life, one can dine in the midst of this pulsating undercurrent, but can also find those exclusive venues that provide a place to relax and catch up with it all.
The V&A waterfront is a hub of activity, built on the docks of a port that still operates, which means fine dining here includes a view of ships coming and going, and seals playing in the nearby waves.
Clifton beach on the Atlantic coast is developed with an extensive portfolio of dining venues, with Camps bay being one of the beaches most thriving areas. Here local and international celebrities sip on grand cocktails and fine wine, whilst tourists soak in the warm weather and the beauty of the South African coast line.
The climate in Cape Town, is somewhat milder than other parts of the country, and the south easterly wind, known as the Cape doctor, blows away the pollution and leaves the air refreshingly crisp. Whilst milder, it still boasts a Mediterranean climate which means that in summer months, outdoors is the only place to be.
The many restaurants in the city take advantage of this, with decks and outdoor dining areas that are not only comfortable, but boast views that seem to be part of one’s imagination. With sunrises and sunsets that take your breath away, or a look far beyond the horizon of the shimmering water, Cape Town provides a picturesque setting for any dining experience.
Cape Town fine dining presents the opportunity to soak in the views, and experience the varying cultures of this effervescent city. Not only do they often capitalise on the remarkable views, but their interiors are equally as beautiful. From those offering chic arty decor, to the grand furnishings housed within the Cape Dutch architecture, they present wood panelled walls, or crisp slate floors, all of which make your dining experience one of great pleasure.
These restaurants strive to make dining an experience, not just a need or chore. Many of them boast cosy Cigar bars, where you can begin the experience with a pre-dinner drink, or end it with a well-deserved night cap. Others offer exquisitely decorated private rooms, that allow the fine dining experience to be the focus for business lunches, conferences or extravagantly catered-for weddings.
The owners and chefs in these restaurants are the chief composers of the dining experience, aiming to make your dining a theatrical event that indulges every sense. Of course the primary ingredient is the five star cuisine, which sees international favourites mixed with varying dollops of South African edge.
Cape Town's fine dining venues offer perfectly matured meat, fresh vegetables presented in exciting authentically South African dishes, and freshly caught seafood, complimented by an extensive wine list, which boast local wines that only emphasise the great taste. With flair the chefs orchestrate culinary masterpieces that compete with the best in international cuisine. The meals are always exquisitely presented, with fine attention to detail, and creative ways of working with food.
The service in Cape Town's finest restaurants is second to none, and completes the feeling of experiencing only the best in fine dining. With no chance to be left wanting, the service staff are friendly, professional, and as enthusiastic as the chefs are to cater for your every dining need. From the minute you take a step into these venues, you become royalty, and are waited upon with absolute class.
From the cosier, more exclusive restaurants, to the large dining rooms that effectively combine grandeur with personal attention, Cape Town fine dining is characterised by an exclusive experience, one that allows the diner to fully immerse themselves in the culture and ambience that is Cape Town, through a single mouthful of delicately prepared cuisine. In order to truly appreciate this traditional, yet cosmopolitan city, it is essential that you treat yourself to the event that is Cape Town fine dining.
