While the all-day dining menu, generous buffet and breakfast menu at Jamani presents a more casual approach to dining, the preparation and produce is just as refined as the a la carte evening offering. The relaxed setting overlooking the pool on a large balcony adds to the ambience.

    RESTAURANT DISASTER Something is very wrong at the restaurant. There was no wine steward and wine was served by the waitress, maybe called Sheraldene. (She has a longer name.) The three bottles of wine arrived, and so did our woes. The cork flew off when the awkward waitress opened the bottle of Cap Classique, with contents and bottle flying all over the place. The wine streamed down the long window and the wall. It landed on the curtains and carpit. The waitress ran to retrieve the bottle, then put the half empty bottle in the ice bucket. I said no, bring another bottle. My husband opened the replacement bottle of Cap Classique - the wine was room temperature, wirh the waitress offering to put ice in the Cap Classique! She got the rest of the wine order wrong. The red wine was suppost to be Pinot Noir - a white blended wine arrived, which she opened without showing the bottle first. After it was refused, she showed the other bottle, which was right. I felt the bottle, it was cold. However, after pouring the wine, it turned out to be lukewarm. Only the glass was cold from standing in the ice bucket. This in sweltering February heat. Again ice was offered. I went to speak to the floor manager who promised me all would be good for the rest of the evening. The waitress asked could she bring the soup and main course at the same time. What? Of course not. The soup was served and when the main course arrived, it was cold, with fat congealing in the boboti. No spoons to dish up food onto plates, we used our forks. No waiter to top up wine. No cloth supplied to dry bottle taken out of ice bucket (for we had to pour the wine ourselves). The food was terrible. The desert took so long, we forgot about it and asked for the bill. More waiting. Two of the four deserts then arrived, it was awful. The manager was nowhere to be seen. These are just some of the things that went wrong. We were six happy friends together, and the experience could not spoil our fun, but we won't go again. This was the worst meal I have ever had. Shame on you. Dine van Zyl
