News from The Bistro at Brookdale Estate is that Executive Chef Gary Coetzee and his team are back after a winter break, once again offering their popular Thursday Fire & Wine evenings.
While they sip a glass of wine and cosy up next to the central fireplace, diners will find Chef Gary in his favourite spot behind the grill. The theme changes weekly, with dishes ranging from burgers & chips, to steaks, prawns and more, and a range of side dishes that may be added and billed as optional extras. Only the freshest ingredients are used, including produce sourced locally to provide a conscious balance of choice for meat lovers and vegetarians alike.
Mid-week dining
The relaxed mid-week dining experience centres around a delicious, uncomplicated grilled dish that is paired with a complimentary glass of wine from the Mason Road range. This includes a Shiraz, the GSM red blend of Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Petit Syrah, as well as a Chenin Blanc and the Serendipity Rosé.
