"If you only do one fancy meal in Cape Town, this should be it. Set in an inky dining room with jet black walls, dark green booths, and an elaborate wooden roof installation, Fyn is by far one of the swankiest spots in the city. And on top of that, it also has one of the best views of Table Mountain. But the thoughtful, well-executed menu, which merges Japanese and South African ingredients and techniques in interesting ways, is what makes it our favorite place to celebrate something special. This is a tasting menu-only spot, with eight courses that include things like seared tuna with an egg yolk center, and miso aubergine or tempura dune spinach." - mary holland
