The Living Landscape Series
Last verified or updated by the venue on 16th Apr 2026.
The Living Landscape Series is a seasonal tasting experience inspired by South Africa’s nine biomes. The menu is structured to offer guests flexibility while maintaining a strong narrative rooted in terroir, sustainability, and indigenous ingredients.
---
Menu Options
Guests can engage with the experience in two ways:
1. Six-Course Experiences (Three Distinct Menus)
Each menu focuses on a specific ecosystem, allowing guests to explore a particular landscape in depth:
Confluence
A seafood-led menu inspired by ocean and water-based ecosystems. Dishes highlight sustainably sourced seafood, sea foraged ingredients, and coastal flavours.
Refugia
A land-based menu centred around heritage and responsibly sourced proteins such as game, beef, lamb, and duck. It reflects inland ecosystems and the relationship between land, fire, and animal.
Botanica
A plant-forward menu celebrating indigenous flora, foraged ingredients, grains, and vegetables. This menu focuses on biodiversity, seasonality, and the depth of South Africa’s plant heritage.
Pricing:
R745 per person (6-course)
---
2. Eight-Course Experience
A curated tasting menu that brings together highlights from Confluence, Refugia, and Botanica into a single, cohesive journey across multiple ecosystems.
Pricing:
R1050 per person (8-course)
---
Pairing Options
To complement the menu, we offer two distinct pairing experiences:
Wine Pairing
A selection of South African, terroir-driven wines carefully matched to each course. The pairing focuses on regional expression, varietal character, and enhancing the story of each dish.
Pricing:
R750 (6-course pairing)
R1200 (8-course pairing)
---
Non-Alcoholic Pairing
A curated pairing of botanical infusions, fermented teas, and indigenous fruit-based elixirs. This includes elements such as rooibos, honeybush, wild herbs, and seasonal fruits, designed to mirror the flavour profile and ecosystem of each dish.
This pairing offers the same level of depth and consideration as the wine pairing, ensuring a complete experience for non-alcoholic guests.
Pricing:
Aligned with the wine pairing structure upon request or as per offering.
---
Experience Positioning
The Living Landscape Series is designed as:
* A multi-course, immersive dining journey
* A celebration of South Africa’s biodiversity and culinary heritage
* A refined, contemporary expression of indigenous ingredients
* A storytelling-driven experience that evolves with the seasons
Guests are encouraged to return and explore different menu themes, as each offering presents a unique perspective of the country’s landscapes.

This is not only a menu — it is a narrative of place, season, and identity, expressed through food and drink.

CAPE INSPIRED EXPERIENCE
LAND AND AIR - 5 COURSE JOURNEY
This menu is rooted in fire—where our ancestors gathered, cooked, and remembered. Every cut is chosen with care, every flame honoured. We work with ethically sourced game and indigenous herbs to bring the spirit of the veld to the plate.
Long before roads etched the mountains and fences crossed the veld, the people of the Cape cooked by fire under open skies. Flame was not just for heat—it was for ceremony, for smoke-kissed meat that honoured the animal and the earth it grazed.
This menu is rooted in those ancestral flames, drawing from the Nguni cattle that roamed the land and the wisdom of cooking with time and patience. We char kudu over coals, press marrow into wild potato, and infuse broths with veld herbs once used by Khoi healers.

SALT AND SEA - 5 COURSE JOURNEY
The Cape coast is wild, generous, and ever-changing.
Our seafood dishes celebrate traceable, sustainable catch and ocean-foraged ingredients—from bokkoms to kelp. Each bite is a tide-pulled story of place and respect.
Before there were cities, the tide told time. The sea gave more than fish—it offered rituals, legends, and a rhythm that shaped coastal life. Here, in the Cape, where warm and cold currents kiss, the ocean feeds not just the body, but the soul.
This menu walks the tide line. We begin with Saldanha oysters, touched by a bokkom mayo kissed with garlic buchu, and dive into fish caught through Abalobi traceable systems. We use sea lettuce, kelp, and samphire as seasoning and sustenance, not garnish.
This is not just seafood—it’s a song carried by waves.
Prelude — The Awakening

OR
FIELD AND FOREST - 5 COURSE JOURNEY
This plant-based journey draws from ancient wisdom and indigenous abundance—where wild herbs, roots, and fruits offer flavour beyond the familiar. Foraged with care and cooked with intent, this menu respects the land’s quiet gifts.
Beneath the fynbos canopy and in the red soils of the Cape Flats, ancient ingredients wait for rediscovery. Long before colonists brought wheat and sugar, the land offered sorrel, num num, kiesieberries, and bitterboontjies to those who knew where—and how—to look.
This is a journey through forgotten abundance. Each course is a story of edible knowledge passed through hands, not books. It honours the resilience of plants that grow through drought, fire, and season. It honours the hands that once foraged with purpose.
This is not just plant-based—it’s a communion with place.

Cape Inspired - 8 Course Menu
THE CAPE INSPIRATION
This 8 Course Menu is a story told through fire, land, and tide.
From veld game and wild roots to foraged almonds and Cape botanicals, each dish recalls survival and heritage. The sea speaks in mussels, seaweed, and the Kaapenaar fish, while the forest offers almonds, honey, and pollen.
Together they weave a memory of unity, endurance, and the spirit of the Cape, one flame, one landscape, one story on the plate.
“Each flame carries a memory of the Cape its land, its sea, its people. This menu is my way of honouring them.”

This is a celebration of living soil and botanical legacy.
Beneath the fynbos canopy and in the red soils of the Cape Flats, ancient ingredients wait for rediscovery. Long before colonists brought wheat and sugar, the land offered sorrel, num num, kiesieberries, and bitterboontjies to those who knew where—and how—to look.
This is a journey through forgotten abundance. Each course is a story of edible knowledge passed through hands, not books. It honours the resilience of plants that grow through drought, fire, and season. It honours the hands that once foraged with purpose.
This is not just plant-based—it’s a communion with place.
