Haut Espoir are very happy to be running a little special at the Twankey Bar in the Taj in Cape Town. The promotion is very simple, runs until the end August in all their F&B Outlets, Mint, Bombay, Lobby Lounge and the Twankey Seafood Champagne and Oyster Bar.
R45.00 per glass! Order 3 and enjoy the 4th glass with our compliments… That is right, buy 3 glasses of our `08 Sauvignon Blanc, and get the 4th one pasela. We could feature all the restaurants on the list there, but wanted to feature the Twankey Bar today because we really love the bar. You can read some other reviews on it here and here but let’s get the official from the Twankey website.
TWANKEY
- Seafood, Champagne and Oyster Bar
Our dedication, to restoring historic landmarks, ensures that we work with significant existing elements to create something that is both memorable and spectacular.
This commitment, to preserving and improving on what already exists, is what the ground floor of the old Temple Chambers (BoE building) – in the Cape Town city centre – has experienced. It has been carefully restored and is now home to the Twankey Seafood, Champagne and Oyster Bar.
The Twankey Seafood, Champagne and Oyster Bar is a rare find. Here flowing champagne and local wine, the freshest seafood tapas, elegant décor and sublime local music tell a glamorous story.
The large street-side windows create a unique viewing room for The Twankey guests with glimpses of the Houses of Parliament and Table Mountain. While its interior, all plush comfortable décor and soulful music, effectively distinguishes it from the lively city bustle that lies street-side of the glass.
The Twankey’s design and central location gives diners the opportunity to indulge in delicious champagne and South African wine, delectable seafood tapas and other seafood delicacies, while watching authentic Cape Town pass them by from the best seats in the house.
The Twankey is open from mid-moring and serves light breakfast snacks, pastries and coffee. For lunch and dinner and everything inbetween speciality seafood dishes are served as tapas. An express lunch – a light selection of hot and cold seafood tapas – is also on offer.
