Where to do Sunday Lunch?
I have recently discovered the most quaint little restaurant in Davenport. There are very few places were I can say that the food is made with love, but with this place, it is clearly evident.
I first went there for a friend's birthday. We sat outside under the trees with a beautiful breeze and sunshine. It was quite picturesque. They are also dog friendly and leave water outside for your animals. What a loving, caring touch.
Recently, I have tried to stay away from big franchises. This is the type of place that I love. The owners are always present, and they are hands on. They make sure that their guests feel welcome...and I use the word "guests" because that's how I felt. I felt that I was being welcomed into their home.
Sunday is their spit braai day. They make the most exquisite braai. This is another element that made it feel like home on a Sunday afternoon. Spit braais are very labour intensive, and the meat and fire has to be nurtured for hours. You also get to watch this process and smell the divine meat as you enter. The spit braai lamb that Sunday was the best meat I have ever had. The meal comes will a mielie, mint sauce and spitbraai roasted veges! Yum!
I knew I had to take the Meetup peeps there. Unfortunately, it was raining so we couldn't sit outside. At first I was very disappointed, but once inside, it felt so warm and cosy. It also had a hipster feel to it.
We sat, we ate and I had never laughed so hard in my life. It was the perfect place to engage with others.
I was banting, so the spit braai made it very easy to keep to my diet, I just asked them to remove my mielie and chips. I cannot comment much about the cupcakes...but I heard a lot of "oooo's and mmmmm's" from the others. I was told that they have the best cupcakes.
So, next time you wanna have a good Sunday Lunch which feels like it was done at home and amongst family, I suggest that you try this lil' place.
Tip: if you expect to arrive after 12, phone ahead and ask them to reserve a serving of their spit braai for you.
