Fine dining is the name of the game at Constantia Uitsig farm and winery’s
three restaurants, the pick of which is the quite marvelous, La Colombe. Chef
Franck Dangereux transforms local produce into a menu that sings of his native
French province: expect flavorful renderings of pan bagna (salad niçoise
sandwiched into French bread), and tartare of tuna with crème fraîche and
salmon caviar. Wine is of a similarly high caste, showcasing some fabulous
international selections alongside the usual domestic highlights. Awash with
warm yellows and sky blues the dining room has a welcoming allure, enhanced by
the doting employees meandering around the place. French doors in the dining
room open onto a lavish courtyard with mountainous backdrop, providing a
pastel-like view to complete the lovely scene.
