"Lunch at Faber"
8.3 Cuisine 10 | Service 6 | Atmosphere 9

A great lunch in a wonderful setting. The food was great - especially the pork fillet.
We were a bit disappointed that they charged extra for the bread upfront - the first time that we experienced that.

We have previously enjoyed Eric Bulpit’s cuisine at The Restaurant at Newton and once again we were overwhelmed with the delicious food served to us. I had the Avondale Hen’s Egg, broccoli, fried capers, salted lemon and parsley as a starter - a visual feast and Absolutely delicious. My husband had the Slow cooked veal tongue, fried maize rice and garlic velouté which was just as good.
We both had the Roasted Pork fillet, parsnip purée, apple, mustard and horseradish for mains. The pork was lovely and tender with good flavours all round.
For dessert we shared the Sourdough bread and butter pudding,
ice cream and jam which was the best bread and butter pudding we have ever had.
The staff were attentive and friendly. It was a lovely day out and definitely worth the drive from Cape Town.

This was my first time at Faber and I would definitely visit them again. The cuisine, ambience and service were great.

"A Taste experience "
9.3 Cuisine 10 | Service 10 | Atmosphere 8

Arriving a Faber during sunset is magical as the mountains and sun display colours unimaginable. The service starts at the door with friendly waiters tending to every need. The starters were exquisite and a taste explosion. The cauliflower mains a taste surprise. Faber is one of the best restaurants and deserve to be amongst the big names.
