About the venue
Opening in mid October 2009 in Cape Town at the new Cape Quarter Extension in trendy Green Point, Cru Café is set to be the new meeting and wine-quaffing place of choice. It’s the ideal address to meet for a casual meal and sample an extensive selection of wines favouring South Africa but also offering some great international options. Brothers Tom and Jacques Castelein are the formidable duo behind the Cru Café restaurant and wine bar concept and are handsomely backed by Cape Wine Master Elsie Pells who brings extensive wine knowledge to the business. The wine list is a jaw-dropping adventure of some 120 choices and expertly listed to avoid pretension and aloofness so often found on restaurant wine lists. A clever addition is the availability to experience ‘wine flights’ where one can chose a preferred varietal and receive three tasters served with an appropriate appetiser prepared by talented Chef Wesley Petterson. It’s a fun and interactive way to sample wines without leaving the city! A wine shop completes the experience and will offer wines not only found on the wine list but also offer rare and sought-after vintages.
