Christmas Day Lunch at Blowfish Restaurant

Make merry while feasting on fine food and soaking up even finer views in Blouberg


For a quintessentially Capetonian Christmas – think picture-perfect views of Table Mountain and fresh, top-notch nosh – look no further than Blouberg’s Blowfish Restaurant, which sits just beyond the dunes of Dolphin Beach.

Famous for its delicious seafood and sushi, the shore-side eatery provides the perfect setting for clans both big and small to make merry during the festive season, even if they aren’t too keen on oceanic eating. Alongside fresh-as-can-be shellfish, calamari and linefish, Blowfish dishes up steaks, chicken breasts, pastas and more, and its Christmas lunch menu features wholesome, uncomplicated fare that’s sure to delight both the young and old, the fussy and famished.
