If your Christmas dreams include fine wine, farm-to-fork indulgence, and a setting straight out of a festive postcard, La Paris Bistro in the Cape Winelands is serving up the perfect holiday experience.
On 25 December 2025, from 11:00 to 17:00, guests are invited to gather around the table for a 3-course Christmas Lunch that blends seasonal magic with serious culinary flair.
Priced at R850 per person, it’s a festive feast that kicks off with bubbly on arrival and rolls into a celebration of flavour, finesse, and festive spirit.
🥂 First, the Sparkle
La Paris knows how to set the tone – and nothing says “holiday cheer” like a glass of bubbly to start. Then comes freshly baked bread, followed by a showstopping lineup of starter options.
Expect art on a plate with dishes like:
-
Aubergine & Potato Gyoza with shoyu dashi broth
-
Prawns with spicy mayo, crunchy peanuts & green papaya
-
Springbok Carpaccio, Baked Camembert, Cured Salmon, and more
And yes, vegetarians and pescatarians are spoiled for choice.
🍽️ Mains with a Modern Twist
After a palate-cleansing sorbet, it’s time for the main event – literally. From seared free-range chicken with sweet potato & pot pie, to slow-braised lamb with phyllo pastry and mint jus, every dish is a festive reimagining of comfort and class.
Other mains include:
-
Beef Fillet & Bone Marrow with chimichurri and potato dauphinoise
-
Pork Belly with butternut & smoked arancini
-
Catch of the Day paired with risotto, fennel, and pancetta
Whether you’re craving richness or something light and bright, the kitchen delivers on all fronts.
🍰 Sweet Endings
To finish, guests choose from three dreamy desserts:
-
Eton Mess with lemon curd and macerated berries
-
Crème Brûlée infused with rooibos and apple
-
Or the festive hero: Malva Pudding with garam masala ice cream and pistachio nuts
It’s the kind of menu that invites you to linger, toast, and definitely ask for a second spoon.
