I'm always such a critic on an all sensory restaurant experience but Momiji just blew my mind. The food was so thoughtfully curated and prepared and the flavours were completely captivating. Our table opted for the pairing, so for a wine novice like myself, I found it quite insightful and REALLY enjoyed all of their recommended options (and added them to my Vivino app of course). As a conscious foodie - I love their approach to Kaiseki “respect for the patron, ingredients and the season”. The service was exceptional, the staff (Lerato was amazing) had a good understanding of all of the Japanese dishes, which was impressive. Oh and ask for their music playlist on your way out… that just stitched it all together for me. A really memorable night out, a must do in Cape Town. (I couldn't resist 'one for the road' at the bar upstairs, best cocktails in town)
