Scarborough
is the last settlement before the Cape of Good Hope and is surrounded by nature
reserve, with the Cape Peninsula National Park to the south and Baskloof Nature
Reserve rising on the steep Fynbos inclines behind. Situated at the mouth of
the Schusters River, this sleepy, eclectic village provides the perfect spot
for talented and aspirant chef, Bruce Robertson, to reflect his playful
attitude and eclectic experimentation, in the launch of his latest dining
concept: The Boat House.
A
charming Cape Cod-style beach house, with 180-degree views of the ocean from
its living space celebrates the ‘Art of Table d’hôte’, an opportunity to dine
with this leading South African culinary creative. The Boat House is a peaceful
retreat, immersed in natural beauty and infused with an unusual sense of
remoteness, bordered by the sea and rugged, rocky hillsides.
The
idyllic scene that unfolds before the eyes of the fortunate diner inspires the
seafood menu, with local peninsula and seasonal ingredients the foundation of
this gourmet adventure, expertly paired with a fine selection of award winning
wines. The dining experience is accompanied by personalized, unique
service, an insight into the world of culinary design and the enjoyment of the
intricate art of excellent hosting from home.
Tantalising
the palate of the traveler this is the ultimate ‘chef’s table’ – a late lazy,
lunch on the deck, overlooking the shimmer of the silver sea, lulled by the
constant lapping of waves.
