Chef Freddie, who has cooked in top kitchens the world over – including four years at the celebrated Cape Town eatery The Pot Luck Club, brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the kitchen. Driven by his natural curiosity and eagerness to always learn more, the acclaimed chef draws influences from all aspects of his life whether it be his upbringing, travels abroad or his many years in service.

 

The first br(eakfast) course is an egg dish of parmesan Catalan, chive scrambled eggs and hake Brandade. Fresh, homemade Pissaladière is served on the side – a traditional French ciabatta topped with onion, anchovy and black olive. The second, (l)unch course features a lamb rack with a red pepper and herb crust, mint feta yoghurt, Moroccan-style cous cous, BBQ brinjal with pomegranate molasses and honey, roasted vegetables with almonds and turmeric and Lyonnaise fine beans.

 

A collection of traditional Portuguese pastries – Pasteis de Nata and Bolas de Berlim (almond filled doughnuts) – make for a very sweet ending.
