The Winesense wine store in Kalk Bay has closed its doors for six weeks from 17 August 2008 and will re-open with a new restaurant in October.

The wine tasting and lunch experience is currently undergoing a few exciting new changes.

Winesense will be officially re-opening on 1 October 2008 as FISH restaurant, with Winesense situated inside.

They have some new food partners on board, including the successful fishermen of Codfather seafood restaurant fame from Camps Bay!

Summer 2008 promises an excellent mix of fun, food and wine. Kalk Bay will be in for a big treat.

Patrons will be able to enjoy fresh fish (caught just a few metres from the restaurant) and expertly prepared sushi, ideally complemented with a few glasses of crisp 2008 Sauvignon Blanc.

Good things are worth the wait ... luckily the wait won’t be too long. To book a table at the Kalk Bay Fish / Winesense restaurant, call +27(0)21-778 1869
