RIVERINE RABBIT

BEST FOR A sleek and sexy date night. FOOD Diners have a trio of menus from which to choose. At its simplest – and most affordable – you’ll find a three-course menu. That ramps up to a nine-course tasting menu. For starters, the delicate burnt leek in brown butter should be top of your list. Prefer something meaty? The honey-cured beef is outstanding. Main courses include sea bream with mussels, kombu and fresh greens, or lamb with legumes and wild herbs. For vegetarians there’s mushroom pithivier. Chocolate fans will love the Koffie dessert: a moist beer cake is topped with Amarula crème fraîche, cocoa nibs and luscious chocolate ice cream. DRINKS A small but carefully chosen wine list focuses on respected boundary-breaking boutique producers. Prices are fair and there’s a good selection available by the glass, alongside bespoke cocktails and craft spirits. SERVICE Warm and engaging. AMBIENCE A light space with art on the walls and greenery to soften the edges. (RH)
