Festive Flavours & Sparkling Cheer: Christmas Lunch at Cassia Restaurant

This Christmas, Cassia Restaurant invites you to trade in the stress of roasting pans and table settings for something a little more fabulous: a beautifully curated Christmas lunch, bubbly on arrival, and views to match.

đź“… 25 December 2025
🕦 11:30 – 15:00
đź’¸ R895 per person
🎄 Bookings essential | Deposit required

Whether you’re gathering the family, surprising someone special, or just treating yourself (you absolutely should), Cassia’s Christmas Lunch promises an afternoon of indulgent joy — no oven mitts required.

🥂 Start with a Sparkle…

Begin with a glass of Christmas cheer sparkling punch and roast onion & tomato focaccia served with paprika butter and olive tapenade — the kind of welcome that instantly says you’ve made the right choice.

Then, enjoy an amuse bouche of smoked salmon pave with lemon mayo and toasted nori, or a delicate vegetarian alternative of zucchini & parmesan pave with basil mayo.

🍽️ Move Over, Santa — This Menu’s the Real Gift

Starters offer elegance in every bite, with options like:

  • Fennel-cured yellowtail with rice noodle salad

  • Exotic mushroom tart with caramelised onion and goat’s cheese (veg)

  • Or seared kudu carpaccio with horseradish mousse and capers

A mango & orange sorbet bomb cleanses the palate before the main event — and what a main event it is.

🎄 Mains That Feel Like a Warm Hug

Choose from festive showstoppers like:

  • Apple & cranberry stuffed pork neck with potato gratin

  • Salmon Wellington with sherry veloutĂ©

  • Roast sirloin with duchess potato and rich festive gravy

  • Duo of turkey with confit leg pithivier and flamed cherries

  • Or a vibrant spinach gnocchi with heirloom tomatoes and vegan cheese (veg)

Each dish is a holiday celebration on a plate.

🍰 Save Room for Dessert (Trust Us)

This sweet selection may cause indecisiveness — and that’s okay:

  • A not-so-traditional trifle with spiced sponge and custard

  • A rich chocolate yule log with roast white chocolate filling

  • A whimsical Christmas pavlova wreath with cherry cream and peppermint

  • Or a chocolate pot de crème with banana, raspberry sorbet, and brownie crumble (veg)

✨ A Christmas Worth Booking

With the buzz of festive conversation, the pop of corks, and a menu made with love (and flair), Cassia’s Christmas Lunch is the kind of celebration you’ll want to turn into a tradition.

Spaces are limited, and bookings are essential — because word gets out when the food is this good.

📞 Secure your spot and prepare for a no-stress, all-style Christmas in the Cape Winelands.

This year, skip the cooking and come taste the joy.
Let Cassia Restaurant serve you a Christmas to remember.
