Description: Just a two hour drive from Cape Town, in the elbow of the majestic Langeberg lies the historic town of Montagu. Here, you will find Jessica's Restaurant, where guests can enjoy a romantic candle-light dinner in this beautifully restored Victorian home dating back to the late 1800's. On Montagu's warm summer evenings, dinner are served under the stars - in a lush garden with terraces, wooden deck and water feature. The restaurant is home to Werner and Adele Joubert and are full of antique furniture, old books and a Russ teddy bear here and there... Artists from Montagu and surrounding towns also use these high walls for exhibiting original paintings throughout the year. From Chef Heinrich-Werner's kitchen you can expect wonderful food, created with artistic flair and an absolute attention to detail; he has added new Sous Vide dishes to his A la Carte menu. At Jessica's we use fresh and local ingredients, vegetables and herbs are picked early in the morning, for that crisp sweet taste, Rob one of the locals in town, often surprises us with bags full of fresh basil, chillies, aubergines and fennel on our stoep... Heinrich-Werner's firm favorite on his menu must be the Tiger prawns flambéed with Pernod, set on ginger and saffron risotto drizzled with wasabi vinaigrette and then, of course there is his crispy duck, golden brown and glistening, fresh Rainbow Trout from Franschhoek is also served daily! Desserts has much to offer, but... ask one who had the crème brulée with the perfect sugary top, this is surely the best... Werner's wine list are a collection of wonderful wines from the R62, he has done allot of tasting and some of these cellars has been visited more than once... to find the perfect Merlot, Pinotage and Shiraz. His love for the nectar of the gods, are clearly shown in his wine menu. Owners Werner, Adele and Chef Heinrich-Werner welcome you to Jessica's and ensure that you have a memorable evening, where we give personal service and attention at all times.
