Johannesburg’s best-kept secret. An ode to the Cape Winelands, told in salt, fire, and fine detail.

    Our Breakfast, all 4 plates was tasty and delicious, theTurkish Eggs was an absolute winner, just a pity that all of our breakfast orders was no longer warm when served, as well as our coffee. Waiters must ensure coffee and food is served immediately when ready.

    What an absolutely unforgettable dining experience! The concept is so unique – a journey through the world's finest salts. The collection of salts from across the globe transforms every dish into something truly special. The food was perfection. The atmosphere is charming, warm, and beautifully intimate. Service was spectacular – professional, warm, and attentive throughout. A true hidden gem in Houghton that deserves all the praise. Can't wait to return!

    Was supposed to be a high tea. Was very unorganised, like they'd never had a high tea before. Teas were tepid. No coffee allowed. Had to even pay for water. With a R700 per head price tag, it was totally ridiculous. Could have had a 3 course meal off the menu and still get change for that amount. Very disappointing Mother's Day afternoon. 😞
