Epice

I had heard so much about Epice and we were incredibly excited. What can I say—we were absolutely blown away! From the incredible world of flavors to our wonderful waiter who took such lovely care of us, everything was perfect.The three startes and the second course "Cumin, Sweet Potato, Beef Drippings, and Berbere dish" were highlights. The entire menu felt like an adventurous journey that completely won us over. Thank you for this unforgettable experience! 🙌✨

This menu hit my perfect sweet spot. What Epice is doing with Cape Town's own Cape Malay flavours is outstanding. It starts Thai Oyster / Hongkong Prawn Toast / CAPE MALAY SNOEK - and that Snoek is the moment. Smoky, sweet-sour, perfectly spiced, it takes a Cape classic and makes it fine-dining without losing its soul. You taste Cape Town immediately. Then Kerala Kingklip, Baharat, Tomato, Jalapeño and * Cape Point Tuna, Chipotle, Avocado, Wasabi flawless technique, bright, coastal, clean. Spices from Kerala and Baharat but still rooted in the West Coast. For a line fish lover, this is heaven - light, no heavy fats, all flavour. *Charné's Lamb Thali - Saffron, Tamarind, Coriander, Chilli* is Cape Malay at its best. Tamarind tang, saffron warmth, chilli kick. It's the thali you grew up smelling in the Bo-Kaap, refined to world-class level. And *Banana, Coconut, Pineapple, Pink Peppercorn* to close - tropical, not too sweet, perfect balance. Epice manages to be globally brilliant and unmistakably Capetonian at the same time. The Cape Malay heart is what makes it stand out from any tasting menu in the world. Best meal in Constantia this year. Book it.
