Top 3 places to eat out in Wilderness
For our #LoveWilderness week we asked some of our members in the beautiful Garden Route village to recommend their best attractions and activities. Gerald (above left, with JD) of Wilderness Manor gave us his top restaurant tips...

1.       The Girls Restaurant

http://www.thegirls.co.za

Gerald says: This is a casual but popular award-winning restaurant with a great African Fusion menu featuring lots of meat and fish dishes cooked to perfection.  The service is brilliant too and our guests always love it here. There’s a gallery upstairs too.  One of the top 10 restaurants on the Garden Route. Open evenings only.  Booking is a must in season.

2.       Flava Cafe

http://www.flavacafe.co.za/

 

Gerald says: Sister to The Girls Restaurant, Flava Cafe is open during the day and evenings – a very casual spot with a small menu serving tasty light meals. The chef sings like Pavarotti if you ask nicely – he sang for me once for my birthday. In summer, it’s lovely to eat outside. Great value, trendy and vibey.  Free Wi-Fi.

SERENDIPITY RESTAURANT

Gerald says: A multi-award winning fine dining restaurant (check out all their awards, papering the bathroom walls) Serendipity (also a Portfolio Collection property) has a set 5 course menu . It is one of the top 100 restaurants in the Western Cape and of course also one of the Top 10 on the Garden Route.  Expect incredible cuisine from executive chef & co owner, Lizelle Stolze who, in 2010 was named by South African Tourism Association as one of the Top 10 Young Chefs. In 2013 she was chosen by SATourism as one of the Top 10 Women Chefs in South Africa.
