15.11.2019 A friend and I went for a pre birthday celebration dinner. The menu intrigued me as well as the names on the menu. It's something new and fresh in the heart of sandton. The parking isn't the best at 24 central, but its a lovely big open restaurant. Pleasant staff. Our waitress Sophie was friendly and extremely patient with us, as we kept on chatting away while trying to decide on meals.

Their signature Cocktails are named after our 9 Provinces, and between 4pm and 6pm daily its 2 for the price of 1. Yay. Not to mention they have a great lunch time special on mondays too for just R99. Definitely need to take advantage of that. I went with Limpopo- Skyy Vodka, Kiwi, Lime Juice, Cold Brewed Rooibos Tea and Stoney Ginger Ale. Refreshing, luckily didnt get too much if the rooibos flavour. My friend had the North West, bacardi pineapple, spiced gold, lime, fresh pineapple, falernum, lime, orange juice and bitters with baobab powder served in a Tikki mug.

We ordered the Onion Petals with smoked Mayo and Blue cheese dip, and the Biltong Potbrood with Kaiing butter. Somehow I dont think we got the blue Cheese dip, nor did we get the kaiing butter but more the chickpea dip.

The onion petals were fantastic, but sadly the portion size for the price is skewed. I recently had a similar onion bite with more than double the portion for the same price. I mean 1 Onion doesn't even cost R45 and we didnt even get half an onions worth.

For mains we both ordered the Huku burger, which is a Masala burger bun with a flamed grilled Chicken breast, with a coconut Peri peri sauce, Rocket, grilled Onions and Tempura Prawns and string fries. I asked for some sauce on the side. Although the bun was a bit dense and hard, it held everything together and the chicken and prawn combo just worked. Delicious and tasty with every bite, and that added bit of Peri sauce just gave it that extra kick of goodness.

Loved experiencing this new spot, and I am sure it's going to see me again very soon since it's close to our offices

This is a beautiful restaurant and is perfectly located in central Sandton. I had their calamari and lamb, I thoroughly enjoyed both meals, their plating is also pretty and picturesque, I forgot to take a picture of the lamb. I cannot comment on the drinks unfortunately as I had champagne. Their service was also good and I loved the live band that played some musical pieces at the end of the evening. I am definitely going back
