From there, things get beautifully indulgent with a generous 7 Colours main: think dombolo, savoury rice, slow-cooked beef stew, grilled chicken and brisket, surrounded by classic sides like creamy spinach, chakalaka, potato salad, coleslaw, butternut and beetroot chutney. It\u2019s comfort food done with confidence\u2014and flair.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"930\" data-end=\"1277\">To round things off on a sweet note, dessert delivers pure nostalgia. A warm malva pudding, syrupy and comforting, arrives with custard and a Dom Pedro cocktail pairing that feels like a celebratory wink to the weekend. Each course is thoughtfully paired with a cognac-based cocktail, elevating the experience while keeping things relaxed and fun.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1279\" data-end=\"1625\">Available every Sunday from 12pm to 6pm, this soulful three-course experience is priced at R350 per person and can be enjoyed at <strong data-start=\"1408\" data-end=\"1426\">Rockets Menlyn<\/strong>, as well as Rockets Bryanston and Beach Club.
