Fat Butcher

As a consequence of our lacking antlers to sort matters out, man's competitive nature can lead to all manner of attempted besting between friends. One popular method is over a flame. Not by wrestling on a bonfire, but by doing your pal in the cooking of m

This place is huge but even on a Tuesday evening not one empty seat. All their food - the meats, the veggie, the soup was of outstanding taste and quality!

Popped in for a cocktail and some snacks. What a pleasant surprise. From Carmen our waitress right through to paying was fast, friendly and efficient. Drink was great and the food warm, fresh and just enough. Happy hour from 16h30 an absolute bargain to boot. Will go again soon.

Cattle Baron Steakhouse

Reviewed By firemanspock

While out touring the vineyards, we decided to get some dinner and found this location on the road. Based on our experience the previous time, we were excited to see this where we found it, The 300g fillet again, was amazing. Perfectly cooked, and very tender. The chicken parmesan, which they describe as: Deep-Fried Chicken Breasts layered with Bacon, smothered in cheese sauce, sprinkled with Parmesan shavings and topped with Toasted Onions. Was still absolutely delicious.The "carpetbagger" stuffed filet with crispy chorizo, camembert wedges & jalapeños, was very good, but in the end, i liked the one with bacon, Peppadews & Feta cheese better. Not a reflection on how they prepared it, just my taste. Service at this location was also great, just like at the first location we had dined at. Too bad they don't have any locations where I live.

Middlevlei Wine Estate

Reviewed By LloydL259

One of the most iconic South African things is definitely a braai! And well, when majority guys think they really know how to braai, doesn't mean that you're really any good at it. But, let me tell you about this #WineRoutingWithLloyd experience that we stumbled upon on the Stellenbosch Wine Route on a Sunday afternoon. The Middelvlei Wine Estate Boerebraai Experience. Well, imagine sitting on the stoep (patio) of one of those old school farm houses, (the ones with the a wraparound polished stoep). The whole family is there for Sunday lunch & it's a bit of a family braai day. The kids are running around playing in the sun, the cows grazing in background, whilst the adults are sipping on a glass (or bottle) of wine. And every now & then you get a waft of that braaivleis being cooked on the open fire. Well, if that doesn't have you salivating yet, then you definitely should imagine that cheese melting in that braaibroodjie.On arrival you'll get shown to your table, where there is a crate waiting for you, with all of your plates & utensils needed for the lunch. But 1st things 1st. Lets have a glass of wine with our starter shall we?Freshly baked Potbrood, served with homemade butter, snoek pate & fig preserve. (Almost good enough to enjoy as a dessert too!) For mains, well. Think of a bit of everything that you could have on a braai? Lamb Chops, Boerewors, Chicken Sosaties, Pampoenkoekies, Potato Salad & a Green Salad. And it's all braai'd to perfection. Nothing is overcooked. The wors is still nice & juicy, but not raw. And those pampoenkoekies. Delicious! Oh! And don't forget that braaibroodjie that you've been salivating about now.Then, what's a proper South African experience that's not ended off with a homemade Malva pudding served with Ice Cream? There really is something special here. It all tastes like home. None of this really mass produced product & that is pretty much because it is all made from scratch on site at the estate. What I really liked about this lunch experience, is that it is very relaxed and there is really no rush. Exactly like the vibe you'd pick up at a friend's house when you are there for a braai. And to make it even better, this time round you don't have to braai & you don't need to clean up that braai grill afterwards either. Double bonus. Then finish off your lunch with a cup of Boeretroos (Coffee) made on the fire. This is a unique experience for the locals (the whole family) & the international visitors that will give them the real South African braai experience & at the same time, enjoy some of the great wine that Ben Momberg is producing at Middelvlei. Check Middelvlei out & plan to #VisitStellenbosch. #WineRoutingWithLloyd - Driven by the #KiaSportage
