Cape Town & Cape Peninsula
in South Africa

Hidden atop a steep stairway, this unassuming ramen restaurant is a true hidden gem. With its authentic Japanese cuisine and rustic, cozy interior, it's definitely a neighbourhood fav. And by far the best Shoyu Ramen we've had in Cape Town. 

Indulge in chef Jesper Nilsson's urban menu in a modern Scandinavian minimalistic setting. From artisanal pizza to some of Cape Town's finest plant-based recipes, there truly is no end to contemporary elegance here.

At Foxcroft the food is just as impressive as the interiors. Think memorable fine dining in a warm and intimate space. You'll never want to leave again.

FYN is a cutting-edge restaurant that brings high quality ingredients to the forefront. We love it for the stellar food (read: kaiseki) and beautiful views of Table Mountain. 

There are a few spots where fine dining becomes art, but La Colombe manages to achieve this seemingly. Sisyphean feat. Stunning views, theatricality and an excellent wine list make for an unforgettable experience.

When we're in town, we love to start our day at Our Local. Preferably with Eggs Florentine, a Mimosa and a good book. Maybe stay for lunch with a friend, so a Caesar Salad and another drink (this time it's probably a Cosmo). Coffee and cake in the afternoon, then dinner with the family. And did we mention it's also a plant shop? What can we say, we LOVE this neighbourhood gem. 

Foodies go absolutely nuts for Ouzeri, a wonderful hidden gem where redefined traditional Greek and Cypriot flavours take centre stage. Their authentic mezze plates are equally as comforting as they are sensational, as Ouzeri has mastered the pleasure of simplicity.

From rich, steaming bowls of ramen to delicious and various toppings, this cosy eatery is warm in ambiance and food.

The Indian-style tapas at Thali are best shared between friends, but they're so good you may want to keep a plate all to yourself.
