Dinner for 4 celebrating our 51st wedding anniversary! We made a reservation two weeks in advance. It was a buffet! At R290 per person I expected a lavish spread of delicious choices - this was not to be. ?? The soup was cold (I requested someone from the kitchen to fetch our bowls and warm up our soup, which worked out) - unfortunately, the soup was exceptionally salty. The meat choices were tiny fatty pork chops, dry short ribs and Boerewors. Chops were tough and overdone and the ribs were tasteless. No rice! Potato bake had a tasty cheese sauce but potatoes were inedible - mine were completely raw. There was a tasteless and fairly dry pasta option. Boring peas (dried out after being in the warmer too long) and baby carrots with no flavour. ?? Tasteless white bread the only option - no crusty rolls. Boerewors was good and my spouse enjoyed the pap and chakalaka. The salad options were sparse - no tomatoes! Desserts: our guests hoped to have Crème Brûlée but it was finished when we went to serve ourselves. ?? “Black Forest” cake was dry - with no cherries! ?? My spouse didn’t mind the orange pudding - the fresh fruit salad was okay and there was pouring cream. The water wasn’t boiling for my tea so it was warm but not hot! ?? Our guests didn’t complain about the coffee.
I was embarrassed and quite annoyed at a bill of over R1,000 for such a disappointing meal. I could never recommend this restaurant to my family or friends. Sad ?? - via
