Meals at Franshhoek...





... always involved wine...

The tasting room (you need to book as soon as you know you are going to Franshhoek, a 3 month waiting list), this time around the chef was quite into foam... there was foam between the very nice cookie thing on the first dish...

The concierge we had at Le Franshhoek hotel was also very good, she got us into Bread and Wine at La Motte and a nice picnic basket at Le Rochelle, definitely better than the oversold Boschendal's picnic basket.

The Medicinal Herb plant garden at the end of the quaint little town was not featured in the nice glossy book about Franshhoek (though the Chocolate shop, Huguenot Chocolates made it in).
