At Cavalli Estate, Mother’s Day is celebrated with a carefully curated dining experience that leans into simplicity, seasonality, and thoughtful flavour pairings.
Priced at R895 per person, the menu is designed to feel refined yet approachable, offering a balanced experience from start to finish.
The lunch opens with light snacks, including soft milk bread, before moving into a selection of starters that showcase fresh, layered ingredients.
- Dishes like baby marrow with avocado, seaweed and green jus bring a clean, vibrant start, while Jerusalem artichoke carpaccio offers something more earthy. For those wanting a deeper, savoury note, the oyster paired with shiitake and teriyaki delivers a rich umami edge.
- Mains continue the same considered approach. The lamb, served with whole lemon and soured onions, strikes a balance between richness and brightness. A vegetarian alternative of eggplant risotto with black garlic and miso offers depth and comfort without compromising on flavour.
- Dessert shifts the tone to something lighter and more playful. Plums with crème fraîche and olive oil cake provide a gentle sweetness, while mango, chilli and basil add a fresh, slightly zesty finish. The experience concludes with petit fours, offering a final, delicate touch.
A dedicated vegetarian menu mirrors the main offering, ensuring the same attention to detail and flow across every dish. [view both menus]
