To make the occasion even more special, every adult guest will receive a crayfish tail, while dads will be welcomed with a complimentary vanilla brandy and Coke on arrival.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>True to the De Vette Mossel spirit, the atmosphere promises to be relaxed, family-friendly, and focused on sharing good food around the table. It&#8217;s the perfect excuse to swap ordinary Father\u2019s Day gifts for an experience filled with laughter, conversation, and memorable meals. With limited seating available across both days, early booking is highly recommended.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/account.dineplan.com\/widgetframe\/rytCwkxv\"><strong>Book here!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u21d2\u00a0On the R511, close to Jasmyn Windmill, Hartbeespoort<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"xtqikln x78zum5 x1y1aw1k xwib8y2\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"xkh2ocl x1iyjqo2 x1iorvi4 xjkvuk6 xpdmqnj\" 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\">082 346 3731<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"xkh2ocl x1iyjqo2 x1iorvi4 xjkvuk6 xpdmqnj\" role=\"listitem\">harties@devettemossel.co.za<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19749\" src=\"http:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n-768x644.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n-561x470.jpg 561w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n-364x305.jpg 364w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n-758x635.jpg 758w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/703578403_1428538192646980_2674680024872411842_n-608x510.jpg 608w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19750\" src=\"http:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n-768x644.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n-561x470.jpg 561w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n-364x305.jpg 364w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n-758x635.jpg 758w, https:\/\/www.food-blog.co.za\/joburg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/702494845_1428538195980313_2412486654015143803_n-608x510.jpg 608w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Father\u2019s Day is getting the full De Vette Mossel Harties treatment this year, with not one but two delicious celebrations planned across an entire weekend.
