    We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience—the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was exceptional. However, I was genuinely shocked to see we were charged R50.00 for a 330ml can of Grapetiser. While I understand there’s a service element involved with the waiter opening and pouring the drink, that price feels excessive for such a small beverage. It was a disappointing detail in an otherwise fantastic outing.
