Description: Steenberg is set to raise the bar with an innovative new Bistro-style cellar door restaurant and wine tasting concept unlike any other in the Constantia Valley. Named Bistro 1682 after the year in which Steenberg was first established, the interactive wine and food destination will be opening on the estate on 13 November 2009. With an informal ambience and offering an interactive dining experience, Bistro1682 will seamlessly complement Steenberg's popular fine dining restaurant, Catharina's. A modern and sophisticated daytime restaurant, Bistro1682 will set out to bring food and wine together in a feast of the senses, incorporating the much-anticipated state-of-the-art Steenberg Winery, Wine Tasting Bar and Tasting Lounge. Set amidst the vineyards at the foothills of the Steenberg Mountain (Stone Mountain), with spectacular views across the vineyards, Constantia Valley, and with False Bay in the distance, the inviting and visually interactive modern space with eclectic design will feature an open flow plan. High ceilings and earthy natural textures and colours will afford a somewhat industrial feel without detracting from the warm, welcoming ambience. A terraced dining area will lead to reflective water features and enchanting 'sensory' gardens. Surrounding indigenous gardens will be offset by a floating glass bridge and an intricate labyrinth to complete a multi-sensory wine destination experience that will entice visitors to stay, relax and enjoy the wine and cuisine of the Constantia Valley. Intrepid chef and bistro dining specialist Brad Ball (35), of the River Café and Olympia Café fame, has been appointed to orchestrate the 70-seater Bistro and a unique Raw Bar. Featuring counter seating and interesting, healthy and delicious raw cuisine such as sashimi, gravadlax, ceviche, carpaccios, oysters and tartars, dishes will be freshly prepared on order by designated Chefs. Hard-pressed to contain his excitement at heading up the kitchen at the new restaurant, Brad intends to make his mark by introducing his own, original interpretation of modern Bistro food by raising the standard of casual dining restaurants and offering excellent value for money. |
