As a novice to a 'Restaurant week experience' it certainly set the bar. Of course one has to mention the beautiful scenery on route to Le Petite Colombe, and upon arrival being surrounded by mountains, vineyards and stunning gardens - it sure adds to a special, unique and relaxing experience.

The food was truly a uniquely exquisite experience!
Each dish was beautifully presented - a picture of nature set in front of you - flowers, leaves, wood - a garden of colour!
The excitement and anticipation as you wait to see what the next dish would look like and of course taste like!

Every piece of every dish was a taste explosion in my mouth - tender, delicious, so well prepared and cooked - flavours consuming the senses!
And the way in which the dishes are served, draws you into the experience, making you part of the preparation and enjoyment of the meal.
For the most part, I was enjoying dishes I've never had or tasted before - which made it even more special and unique! Everything was simply delicious!

About La Petite Colombe

Cuisine: Fine Dining, Vegetarian

“A meal at La Petite Colombe restaurant is like doing the tango with a stranger. You enter the dance floor uncertain of what to expect, and when the music stops at the end, you are left breathless and speechless. And when words are not enough, only a hearty applause will do. I am clapping loudly right now..”

— Nidha Narrandes, Cape Town Etc.

Contemporary fine dining in Franschhoek, now situated at the beautiful Leeu Estates. The 6th Best Restaurant in South Africa according to Eat Out Guide 2019.
