This year, Santa’s sleigh isn’t the only thing bringing the heat. Pepperclub Hotel is firing up the coals and swapping sleigh bells for sizzling grills at COPA Restaurant’s Christmas Eve Spit Braai Feast — and let’s just say, your festive plans just got a whole lot juicier.
If you’ve ever wanted your Christmas meal to feel like a proper South African celebration (with less fuss and more flavour), this is it.
🍞 Start Strong with the Starter Buffet
Kick things off with freshly baked rolls, garlic buns, and buttery roosterkoek. Then dive into a medley of crisp salads — from Caprese with basil pesto and wild rocket, to Watermelon & Feta with an aged balsamic twist, and a zesty pasta salad with coriander and jalapeño lime aioli.
🍖 The Main Event: Whole Lamb on the Spit
This is not your average roast — it’s a slow-roasted whole lamb, basted and turned to perfection, served with traditional gravy, mint sauce, and wholegrain mustard. Add classic braai broodtjies and a spread of hot buffet favourites like:
-
Potato & onion from the spit
-
Panfried line fish with lemon butter sauce
-
Braai veg sosaties, jerk chicken, and harissa-glazed carrots
Whether you’re a die-hard meat lover or a veg-forward foodie, there’s something here to fill your plate and your festive spirit.
🍨 Dessert? Yes, Please.
End the evening with one of two summer showstoppers:
-
The S’mores Ice Cream Sandwich — chocolate ganache, torched marshmallow fluff, and cookie crumble magic
-
Or a dreamy Summer Pavlova with baked meringue, mango-passionfruit compote, berries, cream, and pistachio crunch
