Inventive tapas menu with wine pairings in beautiful setting
"The first evening we dined with chef Liam Tomlin at the stellar Chefs Warehouse Maison Estate, one in his four-restaurant empire."
"You're at a wine farm in beautiful Franschhoek, so at least you know you're in for a visual treat—but Chefs Warehouse doesn't just delight the eyes. Setting aside, Chef Liam Tomlin is a culinary wizard of note in the South African dining scene, with his dazzlingly inventive set tapas menu recasting him as something of a Picasso on the plate, creative with flavor as much as with presentation. To wit: There's steamed hake with Cape Malay dressing; springbok with beetroot lacquer and marinated daikon radish; and outlandish takes on the humble risotto, like a tandoori cauliflower and yogurt version with candied spiced cashews and deep-fried onions. All to say: If you don't think this is one of the best meals you've had in South Africa, someone will happily finish your leftovers. And, because you're on a wine farm—and a very popular one at that—expect plenty of great options, like one of Maison's reasonably priced wines by the glass." - Sarah Khan
