Future hoteliers and chefs announced this week that their pop-up restaurant would have a bistro theme this year. The food is punctuated with continental favourites as well as local delicacies served and created with flair.
The bistro will open its doors on the October 5, at Turaco House, 33–35 Bond Street, Ferndale. The last day of operation is October 31.
The venue builds on perennial favourites such as a retro style prawn cocktail, biltong halloumi salad, mushroom and spinach gnocchi, trout flambé, sunset pavlova and New York cheesecake to name a few delectable delights.
“The students oversee the restaurant, kitchen, finances, sales and marketing, housekeeping and human resources departments as well as service and menu design so that all students get to have a real-life experience of running their own restaurant,” explained third-year student Sarah van Rijswijk.
In past years, standards of food and service have set the bar high with excellent reviews and return visits. The venue promises to deliver flavourful familiarity for the diner and an excellent practical experience for the students.
