Here’s somewhere we’ve driven past on many occasions and finally managed to drop in on: Gabrielskloof
Just outside Bot Rivier on the N2 – beyond the Hermanus turn, but before the over-rated Dassiesfontein – it’s a wine and olive estate, has viewz for dayz and serves up some pretty amazing food, by all accounts.
It was a bit early for lunch, so I had the food pairing with some of their red wines and Mrs 6000 did the wine and chocolate pairing, R70 & R60 respectively. Both were superb.
I’ll put the full details of what was what on here once I’m back in Cape Town (taking a photo being easier than documenting the tasting menu any other way).
UPDATE: Here it is!
We had a quick look at the restaurant: fairly kid friendly and the food looked fantastic; we’ll give it a go next time.
