The spectacular harbour location of Shimmy Beach Club is spacious, welcoming and synonymous with luxury and indulgence. The 220-seater restaurant highlights cuisine with Mediterranean and Italian influences. Expect traditional flavours presented in an unconventional way.

The Summer Menu at Shimmy typically features light, healthy options, appropriate to the season. To heat things up, Shimmy has launched a fresh winter menu, with about 90% new offerings. Comfort food is the key word here. Passionate about fare that makes one happy, Chef Adrian Cook has developed meals that you will love sharing with friends and family.

Adrian-Cook

Arrive hungry because the tempting selection and the generous portion sizes of the starters alone indicate that a culinary treat awaits. The fragrant Venison and Leek Ragout in vol-au-vent on a pea purée, with a garden of spicy vegetables blew my mind.

mains

It’s difficult to choose from the mains. Lamb Shank pot pie, seared Indonesian marinated Tuna Steak, and cider braised Pork Belly are all flavourful perfection.

In the desserts section, A Savoury Sunday stands out as a sweet and savoury blend from heaven. Crispy maple bacon, Parmesan biscotti, toasted pecan nuts, salted caramel with white chocolate fudge and honey rosemary ice cream complement each other perfectly.

 

hennessy

Another after-dinner indulgence is the gorgeous new Hennessy box. Smoky, bitter, and sweet flavours infuse in a sinful way to warm you up this winter. In the box, you will find a chocolate cigar, three chocolate truffles, and a thick and rich Hennessy hot chocolate drink. A serving of Hennessey Cognac, either XO or VSOP end things smoothly. (Hennessey box: R145 – R265, until August 31.)

Shimmy Beach Club will make you feel like you’re on holiday in your own city. The exotic location, exceptional food, and big parties are guaranteed to help you live your best life. The Winter a la carte menu is available from now until the end of August 2016
