What you
can expect
FISH
BUTTERFISH
Fine-textured fish that melts in your mouth,
hence the name - tends to be quite rich so
we normally recommend only small portions
(approx. 80 grams)
CALAMARI
Patagonian baby calamari tubes from the
Falkland Islands. Very soft and succulent.
We tend to give the calamari more spicing on
the grill - almost a "Cajun" style.
CAPE SALMON
Firm textured and meaty with a very well
rounded, full, game
flavour.
COB OR KABELJOU
A soft-textured fish with a mild, salty
flavour (a bit more than kingklip).
DORADO
(Also known as "Mahi-Mahi")
A warm water game-fish that has a
distinctive dark brown stripe down the
length of each filleted side. The meat is
dark and quite firm and juicy and it has a
flavour that is best described as "smokey".
GURNARD
A line fish that is similarly textured to
kingklip and a similar flavour to sole.
KINGKLIP
One of the most popular local line fish - it
is a very moist fish and breaks into juicy,
big white flakes with a very mild flavour
(may shrink a bit on the grill).
MONK FISH
A bottom-dwelling predator fish that has a
very similiar texture and flavour to
crayfish and has also been called "mock
crayfish" or "poor man's crayfish".
NORWEGIAN SALMON
Imported from Norway and very popular for
sushi but also for grilling - soft to medium
textured (best done rare or medium rare)
with a full, rich flavour. It contains a lot
of "Omega fatty-acids" which makes it very
healthy to eat, especially for the heart.
RED ROMAN
Fine, soft textured, medium flavoured and
not commonly found.
RED STUMPNOSE
Also a fine, soft textured, medium flavoured
fish that is quite uncommon.
SARDINES
Small, very salty and flavourful little
fish. Also served on the bone (very fine,
edible bone).
SOLE
Cleaned and trimmed and served "on the bone"
- the fine, small flakes are mild in flavour
and come off the bone quite easily when
grilled.
STEENBRAS
(We only sell red steenbras)
Fine and soft in texture with a medium to
full flavour.
SWORDFISH
A gamefish that has a firm, grainy texture
to it and a slightly sweety, peppery
flavour.
TUNA
Yellow fin tuna - also popular for sushi,
especially sashimi or "seared" slightly on
the grill. It is a firm textured line fish
that has a full flavour and is best done
seared (or rare) to medium rare and up to
medium.
YELLOWTAIL
This line fish has a firm texture and dark
meat and a very full fishy, gamey flavour.
(People who have allergies should stay away
from this fish as it sometimes causes an
allergic reaction to them due to the levels
of histamine in the fish).
SHELLFISH
All our shellfish are imported from
Mocambique. They are the more expensive
items that we stock but you're paying for a
delicacy of very high quality.
KING PRAWNS
Butterflied and cooked on the grill and
served in the shell - they are juicy and
succulent.
LANGOUSTINES
Butterflied and cooked on the grill and
seved in the shell - they are juicy and
succulent and are the sweetest of all
prawns.
TIGER GIANT PRAWNS
Butterflied and cooked on the grill and
served in the shell - they are more meaty
and firm than the other prawns.
All our seafood is grilled beautifully
on our flat-top grill with a little bit of
oil and a wonderful blend of fish spices and
other secret spices which only enhance the
flavour.
