Honoured to make the guest list, I attended the intimate media launch which was truly an unparalleled dining experience.

The menu was meticulously crafted and each dish was expertly paired with premium wine from across South Africa.

Designed for food enthusiast and connoisseurs alike, the experience is curated by Executive Chef Tony Kocke and his excellent culinary team.

To begin the culinary journey, a sumptuous starter was served. The poached West Coast lobster was elegantly topped with seafood mousse, complemented by drops of sauce Cherone, a micro herb salad, marinated tomatoes and seared scallops.

As the main star of the show, a duo of venison loin and duck breast followed. Being a foodie who truly appreciates duck breast, I was impressed by how the dish was artfully presented on a bed of cherry sauce alongside roasted asparagus, baby carrots, butternut purée, cauliflower snow and Château potatoes.

To seal the evening on a sweet note, the table was spoiled to an indulgent Amarula Mousse, delicately rested on chocolate soil and adorned with macerated berries. We enjoyed it with a delightful and creamy Amarula Cocktail.

If you would like to experience some exquisite fine dining in the City of Gold, or simply seek to celebrate a special occasion through an extraordinary culinary adventure, I highly recommend the @Sandton Hotel Chef’s Table experience. It is a delightful journey of indulgence and discovery. Plus, the intimate setting provides the perfect backdrop for any memorable occasion.
