Cooking Up a Storm

When visiting Ryan’s Kitchen in Franschhoek, it feels as though you are being welcomed back after a long journey, thanks to Ryan’s wife, Lana, who is front of house, all pretty and professional. Here, the smile that registers you as a familiar face makes the visit to this restaurant that more special. We have been going to Ryan’s for a good few years and I must still think about our first dinner there where we sat outside, when Ryan’s was still on the main road. Now, the same expertise and passion for food makes us come back each year. It is THAT good.

From the Brut Rosé, to the swordfish starter, to my ‘Koeksuster’, Ryan was up to his usual surprises, playing with texture and ingenuity. We had the springbok main and the line fish, which was perfect. I had no space left, but, Jürgen refused to give up on his tradition at this eatery and ordered the sky-high soufflé. It was amazing. Followed by 2 espressos and a celebrity spotting (Annie Lennox wafted by to say hi to the chef, who was so engrossed in his cooking that she had to wait for him to register her!) our dinner was complete.
​
All in all, Ryan’ s remains top of my list in Franschhoek, a town known for its (now almost) legendary culinary scene…see you next year, Mr Smith.
