Father’s Day at Five Flies Restaurant

19 June is the day set aside to honour the father’s that we love so much

Executive chef Greg Baverstock remembers fondly how he and his dad used to cook together in the family kitchen. This is where his love for food began. For this special day, Greg has devised this hearty menu with his father in mind.

For starters, try the Roast red pepper and mussel soup - served with smoked paprika cream, then as a main, Braised oxtail 'Potjie' – served with thyme mash and onion fritters…both will be a great hit.

Father’s Day Menu:

Starters:
Roast red pepper and mussel soup with smoked paprika cream OR Beef and springbok carpaccio with marinated shitake mushrooms, honey-soy dressing and mustard froth OR Braised lamb and parsley terrine with smoked aubergine puree and date chutney.

Mains:
