Summer in Somerset West has officially been upgraded — because Silver Forest has unveiled a brand-new Summer Set Menu special, and it’s the kind of feast that turns an ordinary lunch into a mini-holiday.
Designed especially for groups of eight or more (aka your whole hungry crew), this menu brings sunshine, flavour, and a cheeky limoncello spritz together in perfect harmony.
Yes, that’s right — every guest is welcomed with a complimentary Limoncello Spritz on arrival. Because at Silver Forest, summer doesn’t start until there’s something citrusy, sparkling, and dangerously drinkable in hand.
🥖 It Begins With Tapas: Sharing Is Caring (and Delicious)
The meal kicks off with a spread of shared tapas — the kind of table-covering abundance that instantly gets everyone talking, snacking, and negotiating for “just one more croquette.” Expect:
-
Fresh bread + aioli
-
A summery Spanish salad bowl
-
Marinated olives that disappear mysteriously quickly
-
Crisp chicharrón
-
Juicy albondigas
-
Perfectly golden croquettes
If this is just the start… you know the mains are going to be trouble.
🔥 Choose Your Main: The Grill Is Hot and the Options Are Serious
Everyone gets to pick their own grill main — and choosing might be the hardest thing you do all summer.
Will it be the cumin lamb biang biang noodles?
The drunken beer-battered hake & chips (always a crowd-pleaser)?
Or maybe the baked cannelloni for those feeling a little Italian?
Burgers — gourmet or chicken — round out the lineup for anyone craving something handheld and hedonistic.
🍰 Sweet Endings Worth Staying For
Your summer feast ends on the sweetest possible note, with a choice of:
-
Burnt Basque cheesecake (creamy and dramatic)
-
Unframed ice cream (Cape Town’s craftiest scoops)
-
Sticky toffee pudding (because summer deserves comfort, too)
With 2 courses for R365 or 3 courses for R450, it’s the kind of lazy-luxury lunch that makes the season feel extra golden. Great food, good company, a breezy setting — Silver Forest has officially mastered the art of summer dining.
