The Pot Luck Club
373-375 Albert RdMy favorite restaurant in the city. Hands down. Go and enjoy.
One of the top 50 restaurants in the world (and therefore quite hard to get a table), it's a brilliant spot to have a long multi-course dinner (if that's your thing). I'd perhaps rather pick the Pot Luck club, but hey, it's in the top 50 for a reason!

Yes, it's in a mall, and that's not fun. But it's the best sushi in town. No comparison. Worth the trip out to the Waterfront. Rainbow reloaded roll.

"Tucked away in the old garage on the corner of Hof and Kloof Streets in Gardens, and hidden behind lush granadilla creepers and a bounty of hanging plants, this laidback café is the kind of place where everyone is welcome – whether you’re strolling in barefoot from the beach, or popping in for a bite between meetings. Furry friends are welcome too, and nobody seems to be in a rush."

"The highly creative seasonal menu is bursting with options, one more delicious than the next. Whet your appetite with a freshly squeezed juice – we recommend the apple, celery, and ginger, or the apple, beetroot, and orange. Then, settle in for a comforting homemade potato rösti with lightly smoked trout, soft whipped herb cheese and a soft poached egg, or old-fashioned grilled farm style sausage in a rich tomato ‘smoor’ with buttered toast. The freshly pressed juices, of which the fruit and vegetables are botanically grouped, are sure to whet your appetite."

"Rated as a favourite by renowned local chef Ash Heeger, The Loading Bay in De Waterkant constantly pumps with urbanites and trendsetters seeking their next matcha latte. Though it shares floor space with an achingly hip menswear shop, the eatery is where the magic happens. Tuck into a bowl of bircher muesli, some spiced buckwheat pancakes, or a slice of double-fermented sourdough with your choice of topping – all of which are available all day, every day."

"With its impressive, yet simple, lineup of tasty and original healthy dishes – coupled with a laidback interior, and simply sublime city and mountain views – Harvest Café & Deli in the Bo-Kaap is an innercity eatery worth its salt.
It’s not for nothing that the breakfast crowd has already cottoned on to the quinoa porridge with banana, coconut, turmeric, toasted buckwheat and passion fruit; and the eggs benedict on zucchini fritters with wilted spinach and toasted almonds. Naturally, smoothies (the Lean Green is a must) and fresh juices complete the picture."

"The famed white canopy and copper sign is a shining light for hungry town-goers seeking a warm cuppa and a tasty all-day breakfast of warm croissants, eggs and bacon, and Brioche French Toast (and many other items). Pull up in a seat in the cool interior, decorated with pared-down wooden tables and indoor plants, or savour the sunshine and people-watch on the street-facing tables outside. Either way, it’s easy to understand why this eatery is a firm favourite for townies and suburbanites looking for a scrumptious morning fix."
