Introduction
Nestled in the commercial heart of this historic coastal village, only twenty minutes drive from Cape Town's CBD along the celestial Victoria coastal road, is the Renaissance courtyard Café. While some Capetonians may treat visiting Hout Bay as a day outing, visiting Renaissance is not a trip to the 'restaurant at the end of the universe', but simply a small detour to a wonderful restaurant at the end of a twenty minute picturesque drive!
Located off the passageway at the Mainstream Shopping centre, built around the endangered Milkwood forest, the Renaissance courtyard Café offers a serene setting, where perhaps the likes of Frank Lloyd Wright would have been inspired by the harmonious convergence of nature and architecture.
Upon arrival, you will be welcomed by friendly staff and the owner, Lauren, that cater to your every need, including supplying you with an array of daily news and reading material while you slip in to the relaxing ambience. The extensive menu is designed to suit the breakfast and lunchtime culinary marauders, with over 40 dishes to select. From full Continental breakfasts which can be sculptured to your particular choices, to the savoury pancakes, health breakfasts, Bruschetta selections and Renaissance Benedict's, to the savoury Croissants or scones, cakes and sweet pancakes, you will not lack delicious variety that will keep you returning. The Chef, Danni, is committed to culinary freshness, uniqueness and presentation that is worthy of a gilded award�?� one named perfection. Each of her dishes is created like an artwork, with such pride and personal investment in the guests' satisfaction.
One of the lunchtime favourites is the freshly original smoked salmon, roasted beetroot and orange salad, dressed by horseradish. This simply leaves your taste buds ululating with joy, best accompanied by a glass of dry white. For appetites seeking further adventure, the Thai fish cakes served with an avocado and coriander salad or the delectable roast sirloin Ciabatta with homemade tomato-chilli jam, will certainly delight your gastronomic pleasure senses�?� as do all meals at Renaissance.
This is why Renaissance Café rings true to its' namesake, it is a rebirth and rejuvenation for your senses. If the Pearly Gates had a garden Café, this would be it�?�
