Plume offered a 6 course pairing menu. Each of the six courses were paired with a specific South African wine. The chef personally explained the courses and the hostess described the wines. Both were excellent and their presentations professional. The food was very good, ticking all the boxes. In addition to the wines a whisky manufacturer also paired some of their whiskies with the main courses and that was a very unique and interesting experience. The singer was way above average and added significantly to the great atmosphere in the restaurant. Expensive but well worth it and highly recommended.

Bakubung Restaurant

During our recent four night stay in the Bakubung chalets, we enjoyed some really good food in the restaurant. What a pleasure to enjoy a meal, overlook a waterhole, with zebra, gnus, warthogs, waterbuck, impala and elephant in such close proximity. A lovely spot for sundowners too.On the Sunday we booked a table inside and enjoyed a hearty buffet. Everything from soup, seafood, curries, roasts, veggies and salads were on offer. All freshly prepared, well presented and very tasty. The dessert section offered a great selection of cold as well as hot desserts and cakes as well as a choice of four delicious ice creams and fresh fruit salad. On one of the other days we selected the fillet steak from the a la carte menu. A more than generous, tender portion accompanied by fries and buttered baby veggies. Delicious to say the least! Service was good and prices, average. We took our own wine and were charged a nominal corkage fee. Well worth a visit.

What a fun experience. Whether you are a local or an international visitor this is a great all round experience. Large drinking hall complete with pool tables and outside is a spacious veranda which is the ideal place to sit on a hot summers day. Braais (barbecues) are lit and this is where the meat is cooked. You can elect to braai your own meat or their chefs will do it for you. If you don’t want to eat you can pop in for a drink.

To say that the service in this restaurant is a disgrace would be inaccurate - it is simply non-existent. When we arrived we were not greeted, but rather asked (very roughly) if we were MVG members, and when I indicated the contrary were simply told the price, with an outstretched hand to show that we were to pay before entering. Given the experience that followed, one must assume that this is to ensure that guests do not simply leave without paying (as we would certainly have been tempted to do). The welcome lady processed our payment and then entered into a loud argument with the chef - whilst we were standing there. Several minutes into the argument she turns to us - as though surprised we have not simply seated ourselves - and instructed another person to show us to a table. The table was unlit and the waitress left without a word. We were halfway through our meal before we were able to attract another waiter to order drinks, which were dumped on our table without a word. Given the spectacular performance of staff at other establishments in the resort, it was very disappointing to see the behavior of the Calabash staff. That said, the food was delicious, although the meat seemed short and the portions we were offered were exceptionally fatty.
