Guys, we need to have a moment quickly.
IT’S ALMOST THE TASTE OF CAPE TOWN OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok. I have calmed down.
From Thursday the 3rd to Sunday 6th of April at The Greenpoint Cricket Club, Pick n Pay is once again bringing us my very favourite time of the year, when Cape Town’s top restaurants come together in a festival of joy, to feed us three of their top dishes. And the best news is (other than our competition that you can scroll down to read about) ticket prices aren’t going up!
This year’s permanent restaurants feature Il Leone Mastrantonio with Chef Daniel Toledo, Jewel of India with Chef Anil Panwar, Azure Restaurant at The Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa with Chef Christo Pretorius and Beefcakes Burger Bar with Chef Wonderful Ndhlovu. You can also catch festival newcomers Camissa Brasserie at The Table Bay Hotel with Chefs Jocelyn Myers-Adams and Jason Franco, Cosecha Restaurant at Noble Hill Chef Maryna Frederiksen and Longridge Restaurant with Chef Bruce Von Pressentin.
The pop-up rstaurants on show are La Mouette with Chef Henry Vigar, 96 Winery Road with Chef Natasha Wray, Makaron Restaurant at Majeka House with Chef Tanja Kruger, and Chef Stéfan Marais representing Societi Bistro and Jonkershuis on Groot Constantia Wine Estate. New to the festival are Burrata Restaurant with Chef Annemarie Steenkamp, Jordan Restaurant with Chef George Jardine and Ernie Els Winery Restaurant with Chef Amelia Hanekom. The pop-up schedule is available at www.tasteofcapetown.com.
The South African Gold Coin Exchange is the official sponsor of the festival currency, Scoins, which you use to buy food and drinks from exhibitors and bars. Each Taste of Cape Town Scoin is worth R5 and prices range from 4 to 8 Scoins per dish.
Standard R80 Tickets (R100 at the door) include entrance to the festival and tasting glass. Premium R180 Tickets (R200 at the door) include entrance to the festival, a tasting glass and R100 Festival Scoins. Tickets for the Taste Clubhouse Experience by DStv are R685 and include fast track entrance to the festival, tasting glass, R150 Festival Scoins and complimentary bar service (malt, wine and soft drinks) in a private clubhouse and includes a Taste of Cape Town gift. Kids under 12 enter free of charge.
