MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View.
* One Star: High quality cooking
Youthful South African Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen, who worked as a chef on private yachts in Monaco and as a photojournalist for a well-known magazine, has already lived several lives… In his cosy, romantic eatery near the port, he signs creative, personal cuisine in the form of a single set menu without choices (five or seven courses), in which he plays on sweet and sour combinations, and dabbles in smoky, spicy and acidic flavours, giving us an insight into South African cuisine, which has found favour with a host of visitors to the French Riviera. To celebrate his tenth anniversary, chef Jan opened a cheese bar opposite his restaurant serving twenty different cheeses, a range of beverages, preserves and dried fruit. Guests are encouraged to change venue for the cheese, which further adds to the original experience.
