Tokara nestled in beautiful Stellenbosch is set in a picture perfect valley which offering visitors a unique combination of award-winning wines, brandy and olive oils, a gallery of fine art, a restaurant featuring one of South Africa’s leading chefs as well as a sublime delicatessen.  Tokara Restaurant, is one of South Africa’s leading fine dining restaurants offering guests terroir focused contemporary cuisine by Chef Richard Carstens, award-winning wines and dramatic views over Stellenbosch and False Bay.

One of the entrees I love to offer most is this very simple and elegant dish that will leave your guests satisfied beyond reason and once you taste it you will see why.




All it is is a potato rosti cake, rocket, boiled eggs in home made mayo creamed with chives, layer of smoked salmon or trout, creme fraiche with a little fresh lemon, salt & pepper, luscious prawns, caviar and caper berry and of course paired with a beautiful wine, my wine of choice being Tokara Director's Reserve.

Tokara Director's Reserve blends 74% Sauvignon Blanc and 26% Semillon. Beautiful nose showing jasmine, lime, blackcurrant and subtle oak. Rich and full but wonderfully poised – layers of flavour, lovely integrated acidity and a pithy finish.
