    Food was great. Small dishes, imaginatively executed. Easy to eat too much! We were there in the local winter which is probably why we were able to score a table

    We were one of the first to go to Bao Down when it opened & still rate this restaurant as our favourite in Cape Town. Once you go, you have to come back. The BEST!
