TINTSWALO ATLANTIC INTRODUCES NEW WINTER MENU
“Fine dining winter courses are ample, yet not overwhelming; delicate but also earthy.”
Renowned as one of Cape Town’s hidden culinary gems, Tintswalo Atlantic has introduced an exciting new winter menu that boasts variety and sustainability, featuring intense flavours and vibrant colours to warm winter plates.
Tintswalo Atlantic is the ideal venue to celebrate a special occasion with breakfast, lunch or dinner in the elegant dining room, warmed by cosy fireplaces and friendly service.

Presented by Executive Chef Guy Clark and Sous Chef Thando Jaxa and their kitchen team, fine dining winter courses are ample, yet not overwhelming; delicate but also earthy, with a strong focus on wild game, ocean and vegetarian produce.

After a refresher of Mango & basil or Fynbos gin & rosemary, main course choices include Tiger prawns, Langoustine and Sea trout with onion & sauerkraut soubise, beetroot volute; or Chimichurri Bone marrow with Shitake and grass fed Beef fillet from Napier, Raspberry jus, textures of potato, lemon yogurt and smoked broccolini; or Porcini, Oyster & Eryngi mushroom with a fried pasta sheet, Cacciotti, lemon and handmade jalapeno kefir – as vegetarian option.
Desserts include Variations of Valrhona chocolate or Savoury sublime of Goats cheese custard with caramelized ginger, crispy Skattie, raspberry soil and braised winter berries to end on a high note.
