Dutch East Restaurant

Franschhoek Dutch restaurant in Franschhoek

The Dutch East Restaurant finds its home in the historic French Hugenot settlement town of Franschhoek in the Western Cape. Easily one of the most picturesque towns in South Africa, Franschhoek has also earned the reputation of being the culinary capital of the country. The Dutch East, with its fusion of traditional Dutch and eastern influence offerings, stands out as a unique eatery in a predominantly French cuisine environment. The restaurant is relaxed and upmarket. The earthy interior manages to achieve a clean, minimalist simplicity in its décor that is stylish and inviting. High A-frame ceilings, red bricked walls and chandeliers set the mood. The menu aims to present food that is both appetizing to the taste buds and appealing on the eye.

Hong Sushi

Claremont Japanese restaurant in Claremont

This restaurant exudes warmth, style and elegance, both through the interior and the ambience. Rich woods, reds and yellows are juxtaposed by a sleek and modern layout. The menu is large - really large. It offers a variety of soups, spring rolls, satay dishes, tempura dishes, seafood, teppanyaki dishes, Thai curries, and a wide selection of prawn-, fish-, chicken-, duck-, beef- and lamb dishes. What a mouthful. Add a variety of sushi like California rolls, fashion sandwiches, sashimi, nigiri and hand rolls and you'll probably come to the conclusion that you're going to have to visit more than once. There are a number of interesting 'chef's specials' on the menu. The Dragon and Phoenix is chicken and prawn cooked in a sweet chilli sauce. The Love Boat comprises prawns, beef, lamb, chicken and duck cooked in and Indonesian sambal sauce. Then there is New Hong's Omelette - seasonal vegetables, chicken and prawns. Hong Sushi delivers on atmosphere, flavour and value for money.
