TTK Fledgelings isn’t about fine dining. Instead, we’re a space for inspiring plates, bold flavours and delicious dishes.

An upliftment program. Empowering people to LEARN to cook. Serving delicious food. Creating opportunities. TEACHING hospitality skills. Done with LOVE.

Gourmet Guide™ Description

In the iconic Old Biscuit Mill in Woodstock, you’ll be welcomed by a sea of smiling faces. Behind the scenes, an ensemble of passionate chefs, led by the meticulous eye of head chef Nathan Clarke, orchestrate a symphony of gastronomic brilliance. The former fine-dining luxury of The Test Kitchen has been softened, with cutlery housed in pewter tankards on tables still covered in white linen. Humbling service elevates the dining experience. Passion and purpose resonate throughout, with each team member exuding enthusiasm and dedication. Here, the kitchen isn’t just a place of heat and pressure; it’s a vibrant stage where every beat is felt, creating an edible future.

Clarke’s journey from kitchen sculler to cooking maestro embodies the essence of this mentorship programme. Aspiring students learn under the tutelage of culinary luminary Luke Dale Roberts and his seasoned management team, being mentored and compensated for their dedication to mastering the craft.

From Cape Malay to Asian delights on two enticing menu options: indulge in the casual offerings of the à la carte 2 or 3 course menu featuring Wagyu burgers and comforting classics, or opt for the curated ‘Fully Fledged’ set menu. From the tantalising Korean-fried chicken with ponzu emulsion to the exquisite lobster bao accompanied by the city’s finest chips, every plate tells a story of craftsmanship and global inspiration. Savour the vivacious flavours of prawn dumplings immersed in fragrant broth, or the artistry of duck ravioli presented with understated elegance.

    This was our first trip to South Africa and our first meal in country was at TTK. It definitely set the bar high for the rest of our trip. The food was amazing! We were a family of 4 (all adults) and we had the chefs tasting menu. I highly recommend this. Between the four of us, we tried all combinations of meals available in the tasting menu and everything was delicious. Among our favorite dishes were: the oysters starter, the tuna tartare, the beef fillet and the springbok. The desserts were also amazing. Likely in the top 10 of meals that I have ever had. The staff was great. Stan was our attendant and he was very friendly, gave us great recommendations on food and drink and really helped make the evening enjoyable for us. Definitely recommend TTK!
