La Petite Ferme offers a culinary experience like no other. It delivers a combination of international methods and flavors while focusing on sourcing the best and freshest in-season ingredients grown locally in the valley of Franschhoek for a sustainable menu. We stopped here for lunch during our day trip to the Cape Winelands.
It was a gorgeous end-of-winter day. The sun was shining bright and we were seated next to the large glass windows with this amazing view. Breathtaking!
To start, I ate the Beet Gnocchi. It came with pickled onions and horseradish cream that had a acidic bite. The gnocchi itself was a bit too gummy though.
Keith ate the Bone Marrow with onion, mustard, and crostini. It was a decadent starter.
For my main course, I enjoyed the Salmon Trout served with prawns, asparagus, potato croquettes, a lemon sauce and caviar. It paired nicely with a glass of La Petite Ferme Sauvignon Blanc 2018. The wine was crisp with tropical fruit and minerality that complimented the fish. This was a beautiful and filling dish.
Overall, we had a very elegant lunch in a beautiful setting. The full meal was just what we needed to fill our stomachs to offset all the wine we'd be tasting in the Winelands.
