With Head Chef Ebie du Toit at the helm of day-to-day kitchen operations and Gray Chikwape directing the Front of House team, working alongside Dale Roberts and Pot Luck Club Group Head Chef Jason Kosmas, Jozi diners can look forward to the same much-loved menu of Asian-inspired small plates served in the new stylish restaurant space at The Peech.

Opened in November 2004, multi-award-winning boutique hotel The Peech has evolved into a contemporary Joburg destination over the years. Known for its afro-chic luxury decor and service, the property is spread across thirty-two rooms and suites surrounded by two acres of indigenous gardens.

Expect familiar favourites and exciting new dishes to be ordered as guests please and enjoyed as a small plate sharing experience for the whole table.

Gourmet Guide™ Description

Now, the bustling hub of Rosebank enjoys the energy and creative culinary flair that made its Cape Town counterpart so famous. The Pot Luck Club offers an experience that tantalises the senses, combining sophisticated flavours with a relaxed, contemporary atmosphere. The space is characterised by an edgy yet elegant design, with custom lighting that adds a touch of whimsy and artistic flair.

The extensive, eclectic menu features over 20 petite dishes that draw on global inspirations while celebrating local ingredients. The restaurant’s format encourages diners to mix and match to create their own culinary adventure. It’s ideal for Johannesburg diners who, as head Chef Ebie Du Toit notes, appreciate the freedom to choose their own dining pace and experience.

Among the standout dishes is the lobster taco, served with a smoky chipotle glaze, radish ceviche, and coriander mojo. Each bite is a seamless fusion of crispiness, zest, and the right amount of saltiness. Another must-try is the beef sirloin tartare, served with rich black garlic emulsion and a bright yuzu dressing, exemplifying their knack for balancing robust flavours with refined presentation. Vegetarians are not left out–choose the king oyster steak with black pepper cep au lait sauce and the beetroot tartare served with hoisin
dressing and ponzu mayo.

    We have been to Pot Luck Club many times since its opening in Cape Town. We moved to the Free State a few years ago and was delighted to see the opening in Johannesburg, so we made a trip out of the experience. What a let down! The food was OK, but the overall experience left a sour taste. The service was average, food came out slow, staff were inattentive and perhaps most of all, it felt as if we we sitting in a hotel dining room. A real disappointment!

    HI Gert Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and for your continued support of Pot Luck Club over the years, it truly means a lot to us. We are genuinely sorry that your recent visit in Johannesburg was such a disappointment. We clearly let you down, and that is not the experience we aim to deliver. While we are incredibly grateful to be inundated with positive feedback, we firmly believe we are only as good as our last delivery, and in this case, we missed the mark. Your comments regarding the service, pacing, attentiveness, and overall atmosphere have been taken seriously. All our stakeholders are committed to delivering exceptional dining experiences. We will ensure that we uphold the delivery of our brand promise to all our patrons. We hope you might consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide the experience you’ve come to expect from us. PLC Team

    Fantastic dining experience! Food was incredible, the whole menu well thought out, and the chefs special, a play on pickled fish, which was a separate item was a standout dish. All the food items were perfectly prepared, although the peri peri chicken was a little hectic on the heat. Cannot fault anything from the lunch, even the service was great and all waiters were very attentive to every need. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    HI Darryn Thank you so much! We’re so pleased to hear that you had such an enjoyable dining experience and that the menu and especially the chef’s special made such a lasting impression. We appreciate your feedback on the peri peri chicken as well; we’ll be sure to share that with the kitchen team. It’s great to know that both the food and service met and exceeded your expectations, and that our team took good care of you throughout your visit. Thank you for the recommendation, we truly value your support and hope to welcome you back again soon! PLC Team
