La Colombe — Silvermist Wine Estate, Constantia

La Colombe under chef James Gaag is Africa's finest restaurant and regularly ranks in the world's Top 60. Set in a historic Constantia wine estate, the cuisine blends French finesse with Asian accents. The 9-course tasting menu is an unparalleled culinary experience — with views over the Constantia Valley vineyards.
