Why it’s worth it

La Colombe is a serious, occasion-style meal: Google describes contemporary cuisine that fuses local ingredients with French technique in an upmarket vineyard setting. It is part of a group that also runs restaurants in Franschhoek and the V&A Waterfront. Treat it as the main event of the day rather than a stop along the way.

Highlights

  • Contemporary French-leaning cooking with local ingredients
  • Vineyard setting on Silvermist
  • Tasting-menu style meal
  • Part of the La Colombe group
