The Marriage of Food & Wine tasting menu offered a number of delightful little surprises. We were blessed to enjoy lunch on the Terrace in warm sunshine with a beautiful view of the Franschoek mountains and valley.
We booked a 6-course food and wine pairing and drove to Franschhoek on a beautiful blue sky Winters day. There were tables outside on the terrace, and we would have loved to sit there, however there was a cold wind, and we sat inside.

The combination of food and wine was really excellent! Especially the tartare and the chilly prawns were outstanding.
The only minus was the koeksisters, tomatojam and fried mozarella, the first dish we had with the brut. The brut was excellent as usual, but we advise to replace this dish. We also gave this feed-back to the waiter.
Also we advise to paint the interior walls and ceiling in a light cream colour, as the concrete looks a bit gloomy and depressing.
We went to Haute Cabriere, to experience their tasting menu of Friday night the 27th July.
The meal was really good, excepting for the starter, basically "vetkoeks" with tomato jam, which I found unappetizing.
The wine pairing was great, although they were slightly mean on the amount of wine given.
Besides that, an extremely enjoyable evening.

Food was 1st class, with the wine pairing just adding that little something extra (to make the food exceptional). The staff were pleasant, knowledgeable and quick to assist.

Well prepared food and just the right portion sizes. What Haute Cabriere get right is that they don't over complicate with too man flavours. Six very distinctive courses paired with great wines. Favourite had to be the Crepe Suzette with orange blossom ice cream.

Waiters were personable without being familiar and knew the pairings well.
And of course the venue on a sunny winters afternoon is hard to beat.
