Thursday dinners at Dear Me

Supper with wine pairings

This lunch time bistro-style restaurant in the city centre is open once a week for Thursday dinners and you won’t want to miss the fantastic seasonal menu that chef Vanessa Marx puts together each week.

This popular spot is dedicated to producing simple, honest food that is ethically produced and based on the available produce. Each week the chef will put together a selection of delectable courses, you can choose to have three of five courses with or without the wine pairings or you can choose dishes from the â la carte menu.

Dear Me focuses on delicious meals that accommodate vegetarians, vegans and people with other special dietary requirements so this is a great dinner option for those of you that are not catered for elsewhere.

Served upstairs in the elegant White Room the menu is different each week depending on what ingredients are available. Past favourites include the honey glazed free-range smoky pork neck with sweet potato dumplings or the slow roasted tomato and artichoke tagliatelle. 

As well as the fantastic wine pairings there are Cape Winemakers Guild selections sold at nearly cost price. This is a fantastic experience for food and wine lovers and as it is limited to 30 people each week it is an intimate, special experience. Booking is essential.
