La Colombe named Restaurant of the Year at Mercedes-Benz Restaurant Awards

In front of over 700 of the country’s shining culinary talents, La Colombe was announced as South Africa’s number one restaurant at the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Restaurant Awards, held at Cape Town’s Grand West Casino. This is the first time La Colombe has achieved the coveted title, having previously peaked in second place in 2015 and 2016.

In addition to winning the coveted title of Restaurant of the Year, La Colombe’s sommelier, Joseph Dhafana, won the 2019 Wine Service Award. This award not only recognises his extensive wine knowledge but also his contribution to the greater dining experience at La Colombe.

The celebrations aren’t confined to Constantia, like La Petite Colombe, La Colombe’s sister restaurant in Franschhoek, maintained their position in the Eat Out Awards top 10 for the second consecutive year.

This is all proof that our Food & Beverage sector is booming! Well done to all!
