Set in a converted house in central Franschhoek, the atmosphere at Le Bon Vivant is homely and relaxed, while reminiscent of contemporary French restaurants. The glass wall allows you to see Pierre Hendriks and his team at work. Tables are also available in the shaded garden next to the restaurant for lunch and dinner on warm summer evenings.

    Apart from the tender blesbok the standard of cooking was very disappointing- scallops with too much lime, cold mashed potatoes served with blesbok, chocolate soufflé undercooked and tasting of hot chocolate not Valrhona as advertised.
