La Colombe
Constantia Uitsig, Cape Town, 7848
uitsig.co.za
For Cape Town’s top fine dining experience you’ll have to head slightly out of town to Constantia Uitsig and the fabulous La Colombe. Widely regarded as one of South Africa’s very best restaurants, the Southern French cuisine sits perfectly with the Provencal surroundings amongst the start of the world famous winelands.
Precise service from charming, sharp and informative local waiters is matched with a dining room that might be classed as somewhat informal considering the exceptionally high standard of cooking here. In a countryside setting such as this however, and particularly in South Africa, anything more would have seemed pretentious, and for all its carré d’agneau rotis and pavé de thon grilles, pretentious is one thing La Colombe is not. Book ahead and consider making a day of it or staying overnight in one of the on-site bedrooms.
