If you thought puzzles were just for rainy Sundays and coffee tables, think again — Durbanville Hills is turning the iconic Tangram into a seven-course culinary adventure this August.
On the 13th (sold out) and 14th, The Tangram restaurant invites you to take a seat, grab a glass, and prepare for a night where food, wine, and imagination collide.
At R700 per person, the Tastes of Tangram dinner is no ordinary meal.
- It’s a flavour journey inspired by the seven shapes of the Tangram puzzle — each piece representing a course that connects Earth, Fire, Water, Air, and you. And trust us, your tastebuds are about to be very complete.
What’s on the plate?
The menu reads like a greatest hits album of flavour:
-
West Coast oyster with passionfruit salsa to awaken your senses
-
Calamari & prawns in a passionfruit beurre blanc so smooth it should have its own soundtrack
-
Curried chicken sosatie that’s like a hug from your heritage
-
Pea and smoked ham croquette with truffle aioli (yes, please)
-
Springbok tataki and carpaccio with blueberry compote — a wild twist you didn’t see coming
-
Honey-mustard pork belly that might just make you weep
-
And the finale: brandy-infused cherry compote with chocolate namelaka and caramelized white chocolate crumb — basically dessert doing cartwheels.
Every dish is expertly paired with Durbanville Hills wines, making this dinner not just a feast, but a fully orchestrated sensory experience.
