5 buffet specials in the Winelands

Friday, May 17th, 2019 by Lindsay September and Nikita Buxton

A glass of wine with a plate filled with delectable eats – that’s what we call a perfect day. Make the dream a reality with these spots in the Winelands offering buffets.

Flavours at The Devon Valley Hotel (Stellenbosch)

Terrace-style eating is offered at this pretty spot, nestled in the verdant Devon Valley, but there’s also the cosy interior for chilly days. The Sunday buffet is wildly popular and features around 12 starters, meaty main courses of lamb, pork, oxtail, famous chicken-and-mushroom pie and various accompaniments. Desserts are a treat, and the cheese platter with pineapple-and-raisin chutney and excellent coffee complete the generous offering that’s priced at R295 a head.

Rhone Restaurant at Boschendal (Franschhoek)

This traditional Cape buffet is one for the books. Hosted every Sunday (and other days of the week, for groups of 20 or more), the buffet features dishes that pay homage to the estate’s heritage as a traditional Boland farm. Taste recipes handed down through generations of Boschendal cooks, with dishes like crispy roast potatoes, bobotie with homemade chutney, curried fish, baked lamb and roast beef. Also enjoy a selection of salads, hot and cold starters, sambal, rotis, and soups with freshly baked bread. End off with brandy snaps bursting with whipped cream along with good coffee. The buffet costs R425 per person (and R225 for children under the age of 10) and includes a welcome drink you can savour on the stoep before heading inside for the feast.
