THE MOUNT, DURBANVILLE

Date:  3 August 2010
Hosts:  Don & Rita
Group: 8ppl

"Durbanville's hidden jewel"- definitely!!

Probably the best dinner to date!!!!! Venue absolutely stunning (not too difficult to find)...food fantastic and the service excellent!

For the first time - we were all seated round a big square table where we could all see each other and have a conversation without shouting to get the person on the far ends attention.   This made for a stunning atmosphere!

Starters to try:   Trinchado (no off-cuts here),  Snail sandwhich (tastes better than it sounds lol), Kanonkop firecrackers, Grilled Calamari & Stone bread....all delicious.

Mains were fairly big portions and definitely the best steaks we've had. 
Wasn't easy deciding on what to have though....Curry, Espetada, Seafood.....or one of their famous steaks. 
They also have a variety of specials for the day & some delectable desserts for those with a sweet tooth.

Everything was done to absolute perfection - well done The Mount!

We will definitely be going back for seconds :)
