Starting at 18:00, Chef’s Table Vol. 11 offers a five-course dining experience paired with six exceptional wines from a selection of acclaimed producers.
At R595 per person, the evening puts the spotlight on the art of pairing rather than a single wine estate, giving the food and the wines equal billing.
- Executive Chef Sawan has curated the five-course menu to harmonise with the selected wines. Each dish is designed to elevate and echo the character of its pairing, creating a progression of flavours that brings the relationship between the kitchen and the glass into focus.
With six handpicked wines accompanying five courses, guests can look forward to a considered exploration of how different flavours and wine characteristics work together. The experience promises a mix of finesse, creativity and delightful surprises, making it a tempting choice for wine enthusiasts, curious diners and anyone who enjoys a meal with a little extra thought behind it.
This is an evening dedicated to the craftsmanship of pairing, with Executive Chef Sawan’s menu designed around the wines rather than treating them as an afterthought.
For those who appreciate imaginative cooking and discovering new wine combinations, Chef’s Table Vol. 11 offers an opportunity to slow down and enjoy each course as part of a larger experience. With the next chapter of the series arriving at Verdicchio Restaurant & Wine Cellar, guests can look forward to an evening where good food and exceptional wine share the spotlight.
