On a cold and rainy night we ventured out to Monneaux Restaurant in the Franschhoek Country House and Villas and were soon ensconced in a comfy couch in front of a roaring fire sipping some sherry.
After thawing we escorted to our table alongside another fireplace. Despite the other tempting items on the menu we both opted for the 5 course gastronomic menu at R325 per head. On the menu was vegetable spring rolls, mussels in a lovely spicy oriental sauce, my husband enjoyed the venison (gemsbok) with an unusual pumpkin pie while I had the salmon trout, this was followed by Gorgonzola and fig parcels, and for desert we had passion fruit creme brulee and apple tart.
This was a lovely meal out, but not exceptional!
