Located on the beautiful Nitida Wine Farm in Durbanville Hills, Cassia Restaurant is the perfect venue for weddings, special occasions and weekend brunch. The modern country-style venue looks out onto a stunning pond and over the vineyards of the wine farm. The upmarket décor makes this venue a great place for breakfast, brunch and dinner. I visited Cassia Restaurant for the first time on a Sunday morning and experience their breakfast menu that was highly impressive! Served from 09am until 11:30am every day, they offer a wide variety of breakfasts along with some kiddie’s options for the whole family.

For breakfast, I enjoyed a lovely freshly squeezed orange juice and their Croissant filled with smoked salmon and chive scrambled egg, crème fraiche and topped with loads of rocket. Cassia Restaurant is very well-priced and you wouldn’t expect it when looking at the classy décor and impressive natual surroundings. My croissant was absolutely delicious and the kind of breakfast you dream about on a weekend morning. The salmon was fresh, and the chive scrambled eggs went beautifully with the entire dish. If you’re not a fan of rocket, ask them to leave it on the side, but it does go very well with the salmon and eggs. The presentation was superb and even though this was just a simple breakfast, I felt like a million bucks and that’s what really counts when eating out at a great restaurant!

Before I left, I had a look at their lunch and dinner menu, and I can’t wait go back to try out their great dishes. They offer a wide variety of starters, main courses and desserts, and although the prices are a little more expensive, from what I’ve experienced at Cassia, it’ll be well worth it!
