The Gourmet Meander
The Cellars is the ultimate base for a variety of gastronomic experiences… from farmer’s markets and wine estates to Cape Malay cuisine, and the artisanal coffee and craft beer hotspots that Cape Town is fast becoming known for.

The Cellars-Hohenort is set in the midst of Constantia, known as ‘Cape Town’s Vineyard’; from this location guests can explore the surrounding valley, which forms South Africa’s most historic wine region. Make your way through the mountain side of green corridors and trees for some of South Africa’s best wines. Many of these wine estates boast world-class restaurants, too. For a sense of history, pay a visit to Groot Constantia; the more than 300-year-old wine farm has a museum, as well as award-winning wines, to explore. Then, for one of the best views in the valley, head to Constantia Glen. Afterwards, take the whole family for a picnic on the lawn at Buitenverwachting wine estate.

Cape Town has a thriving market culture. Visitors can mingle with the residents and shop for seasonal produce and gourmet goods, while enjoying live music, craft beer and local wines.

Exploring the markets will take you from the forests of Tokai to the urban centre, and beyond. Visitors will get a snapshot of the city’s diverse and unique culture by visiting top markets such as the Bay Harbour Market in Hout Bay; the Neighbourgoods Market at the Old Biscuit Mill in Woodstock, where designers and artisanal food producers meet; and the Oranjezicht City Farm, a community farming project with a weekly market at the V&A Waterfront.

Your foodie journey continues into Bo-Kaap, Cape Town’s old Malay Quarter and one of the oldest parts of the city. It is a patchwork of brightly painted historic houses, cobbled streets and a network of restaurants and cafés. Here visitors can sample Cape Malay cuisine, traditional food originating in the 17th century. Wander down Rose Street for fragrant rotis, curries and samoosas.

An interesting coffee spot can be found further down on Buitenkant Street, within one of the city’s most creative hubs: The Haas Collective. Here, hand-roasted coffee and art meld in a unique experience. Cape Town has many other such gems, such as Truth Coffee Roasting, Yours Truly and Deluxe Coffee Works, to name a few.
