In celebration of all things culinary, Cucina di Giovanni is situated in the scenic heart of the Cape Winelands, on a spectacular farm called Eikendal. This farm is part of the Stellenbosch region and is graced by views of the massive mountains and the high skies of Africa. In addition, it is surrounded by vineyards that produce some of the finest wines in the world.
And this is the idyllic setting for Cucina di Giovanni. The menu has a distinct Mediterranean influence with plenty of variety, and each dish is perfectly offset by a fantastic South African wine. Menu favourites include a chef’s selection, helping the diners to make the best choices. Popular starters are the pork fillet wrapped in bacon, porcini mushrooms and truffle with basil, served on ciabatta; or prawn springrolls with coriander and avocado. In addition to gourmet pizzas and pastas, there is a prawn, calamari and citrus salad; a risotto made with peas, capers and asparagus; veal medallions with fresh cream and lemon; lamb curry; or eisbein cooked to perfection.
The indoor dining area is fantastic for chilly nights and romantic meals. The outdoor area is lovely for families with little ones that wants to indulge in the play area, or diners that have a craving for the gorgeous scenes of the Cape Winelands.
Stellenbosch feels like another world, but is only about 30 minutes from the Cape Town International Airport, and about 45 minutes from the City Bowl and the V & A Waterfront. It is neighbour to the other wine hubs of Paarl and Franschhoek, where tours and tastings are the orders of the day.
