I grew up in this building so I have no choice but to mention it. Set on a beautiful farm about 4 kilometres outside of scarborough on the drive to Cape Point, it is a charming place with good, simple food served in a really pretty outdoor setting. Run by my father Ben and stepmother Rose, They also throw the best afternoon summer concerts this side of Kirstenbosch.
