Lovely peaceful lunch. Food was delishious and well presented. Thank you for the good service and great outing.
The food was amazing but the highlight of our evening was definitely the service.
De Kloof might have been Restaurant of the year in 2013, but how things have changed. The 5 stars on their logo must be for decorative purposes only.
Restaurant was very quiet tonight (2 tables in total), so not sure if this is why the food was an "after thought". Service was good though!

Restaurant was very quiet tonight (2 tables in total), so not sure if this is why the food was an "after thought". Service was good though!
Dish of the experience was definitely the Fancy pannekoek. I can't fault it. The lamb 3 ways (starter) was good, but not wow.
In terms of the main dishes:
Pork in the vineyard: Hanepoort Jus and Pork Samoosa was the winners here. Pork Belly was nice, no crisp though. The chef "forgot" to put the pickled apple on the dish. The Mash tasted more like "Smash" than actual Mashed potatoes.
The Picana: Steak was medium instead of Medium Rare. Chef "forgot" to put the spinach wonton on the plate but miraculously Edame beans ended up on the plate. (Which is not part of the dish at all)
Desserts:
Dark chocolate fondant with grapefruit marmelade and lemon sorbet: no Marmelade to be found on this plate. The fondant was good though. Honeycomb a bit too "Bicarby"
Pineapple tart: good flavour if you eat it with the Dulce ice cream. Tart pastry a bit thick. No bonbon on the plate.
We enjoyed everything. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. The food was tasty and nicely plated. We will be back.
Found human hair in my starter. New starter brought out was rushed & pancake edges was burnt. Pork belly was very dry & not enjoyable. Overcharged me on wine. Will not be returning to this establishment.
