The team from Cape Town – The Most Beautiful City in the World recently visited Franschhoek Country House & Villas and dinned at Monneaux Restaurant. Michal Méchant’s review had this to say about the experience:

While I was down in #CapeTown at the beginning of last month, I had the pleasure of #dining at the amazing Monneaux Restaurant, located in the heart of #Franschhoek.

I sampled a few items on their #menu. If you're a lover of #finedining, it is the place to go!
They offer #sustainable meals as they source some of the herbs, fruit and veg from their very own garden. If not from their garden it is locally sourced - which means freshness, creativity, and generosity on every plate, without compromising on technique or elegance! The setting is so beautiful with the fountains, you would think you were in a quaint southern European city!

As you'll see in the photo's it was a #feast for the eyes and stomach! As a pre starter I was persuaded to try the smorgasbord - which was absolutely amazing! From there my starter was the silky organic vegetable pappardelle, and once all of that settled I moved to mains. My choice was the dry aged and grilled ribeye - it was to die for! For dessert I sampled the baked cream cheese & ivoire chocolate mousse...one literally rolled out the place!

So, if you are looking for an amazing fine dining experience to see 2023 in, definitely swing by Franschhoek and experience #MonneauxRestaurant ...you won't be disappointed!
