After the triumph of 9th Avenue;s Valentine’s Day dinner, which was faultless and I can honestly say was the best meal I have eaten in a year, the Paul Cluver wine pairing dinner will be the hottest table in town next week.
Graham Nielsen’s cooking has gone from wonderful to sublime, and his attention to detail will be on show here as he cooks a menu I am already looking forward to and it’s a week until I eat it!
Highlights include fig and goat’s cheese salad with parma ham and pine nut dressing, the house cured salmon with truffle blini, and white wine braised lamb. It is incredible value and will be teamed with Paul Cluver’s award winning range of wines. Paul’s 2010 Chardonnay, paired with the salmon is superb. It is a rare thing to have dinner in such an intimate setting with such a renowned winmaker, I am so excited.
At R375 it is incredible value, and if you want to go, book quickly, these tables won’t be there for long!
