John wanted to
watch the Stormers vs Lions rugby match on Saturday evening and, sadly, our B&B didn’t
have television - so we had to seek out a place where he could watch and then, later, we could have supper together. Sunfish turned out to be the place, just
about 5 minutes drive from our B&B.
It’s very
homey and simple, but has great prices. All the crayfish we saw in other
restaurants was in the region of R245 each. The pub lunch price is unreal and
takes us back to the 1980’s. As it says
on the menu, the choice is up to the publican
We drank a
bottle of Oak Valley Sauvignon Blanc in tribute to their winemaker Peter Visser
who died of cancer this week. A toast to
you Vissie; you made great wine
A page from
the menu. We didn’t try the chocolate “mouse” but it sounds good
The mostly
local crowd was extremely friendly and welcoming. They were having a snoek
braai as the snoek are running well. This fish needs to be cooked super fresh
and the tradition on the West Coast is to coat it with apricot jam and then put it on the braai.
We opened this
bottle of Welbedacht Syrah from our cellar to go with the food. It was
stunningly good. Soft and sweet with fresh and cooked berries and lots and lots
of spice
It went
perfectly with supper. No chips because we are on the Noakes diet. Lynne had a
small steak with salad
John had a boerewors
burger - yes, without the bun and also served with a salad. The bill for the
meal was R208???
Try it when
you are in the area, you might just like it a lot. The owner has been a
policeman, a steel worker and is now living his dream by the sea, doing what he
loves best, cooking
