It starts with freshly baked pot bread, served with farm butter and sweet apricot jam, before moving into rich seafood favourites like mussel meat prepared with garlic and onions, and mussels steamed in white wine.<\/li>\n<li>From there, the menu balances coastal classics with hearty comfort. West Coast snoek with sweet potato and a traditional meat potjie add depth, while the highlight remains the prawns, which take centre stage in place of the usual seafood pot. It is a focused, crowd-pleasing approach that keeps things satisfying without overcomplicating the spread.<\/li>\n<li>Sides of rice, garden salad, and a warm vegetable dish round out the table, while the finish keeps things familiar and sweet with seasonal fruit, coffee, and koeksisters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each mom also receives a small surprise on arrival, adding a thoughtful touch to a day that is all about making her feel appreciated without turning the occasion into something overly formal.<\/p>\n<p>Pricing is structured to accommodate families, with adults at R395, pensioners and high school guests at R295, primary school at R170, and younger children at R50, with those under three dining free. A cash bar is available, with card facilities on hand for convenience.<\/p>\n<p>Bookings are essential, and with limited seating, the day tends to fill up quickly.\u00a0<strong>For those looking to celebrate without the pressure of planning every detail, this is a Mother\u2019s Day that keeps it easy: good food, a full table, and just enough surprise to make it memorable.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u21d2\u00a08 Pistorius Rust Small Holdings, Ngwathe<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"xtqikln x78zum5 x1y1aw1k xwib8y2\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"xkh2ocl x1iyjqo2 x1iorvi4 xjkvuk6\" role=\"listitem\"><span class=\"x6s0dn4 x17zd0t2 x3nfvp2\"><span class=\"x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u\" dir=\"auto\">083 395 4343 \/\u00a0<\/span><\/span>+27 71 049 0672<\/li>\n<li role=\"listitem\">parys@devettemossel.co.za<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19638\" src=\"http:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n-768x644.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n-561x470.jpg 561w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n-364x305.jpg 364w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n-758x635.jpg 758w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/683828384_989195693862989_4772951652013966503_n-608x510.jpg 608w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At De Vette Mossel Parys, Mother\u2019s Day comes with a little extra flair this year.
