Ask any self-respecting South African foodie to compose a top five fine-dining list and Buitenverwachting will inevitably crop up somewhere or another. This formal valley restaurant serves international haute cuisine on a menu whose influences include local, European and Asian. There is a daily Chef's menu and a crayfish menu to chose from ensuring that no palette is left un-catered for. Special touches include an "amuse-bouche" and sorbet between courses to ensure that gastronomic equilibrium is maintained and no texture of flavour goes unnoticed. Regular starters include: kudu carpaccio with mushroom bean salad and pecorino and Asian-style glazed warthog loin, setting the scene for a fine culinary safari. With a wide range of wines to complement main courses such as whole oven roasted pigeon with wild mushroom butter, or kabeljou in a shrimp-caper sauce, Buitenverwachting promises to be an assault on your every sense, elegantly timeless, utterly delectable and thoroughly unforgettable.
