Boschendal Wines, sponsor of Eat Out’s Style Award, has congratulated the The Pot Luck Club on being named South Africa’s most stylish restaurant at the 2013 Eat Out DStv Food Network Restaurant Awards.

“Boschendal Wines has an appreciation for style. We saw the introduction and sponsorship of the annual Style Award as a way to acknowledge the element of creative flair that transforms a very good restaurant into a spectacular experience,” said Jacques Roux, marketing director for DGB, the parent company of Boschendal Wines. “Congratulations to The Pot Luck Club team. You are deserved recipients of the award.”

Launched in 2012 by award-winning chef Luke Dale-Roberts, The Pot Luck Club is situated on the sixth floor of the converted flour silo at The Old Biscuit Mill, offering diners exceptional views of Cape Town. The journey to the restaurant begins with diners catching a glass lift to the top floor of the silo, where they encounter a restaurant with an open-plan kitchen lit by studio lighting. The décor has been described as “industrial-chic”, and Luke Dale-Roberts says it was purposefully built around the notion of collaboration: “We have such incredible talent in our city and I wanted to ensure the space reflected that in a non-pretentious way.
The out-of-the-box ideas and advice from all the players on the project is what gives this restaurant true soul. Architect Greg Scott and his designer Nina Sierra have brilliantly pulled this whole project together and their attention to detail has been remarkable.” The winner faced stiff opposition.

Other nominees in the Boschendal Style Award category included Babel, Burrata, Camphors at Vergelegen, Craft Trattoria, Crazy Horse, Five Hundred, The Green House at Babylonstoren, Hartford House, Harvey’s Restaurant, Hemelhuijs, The Kitchen at Maison, Makaron, Pierneef à La Motte, Stretta Café, Tashas Le Parc, The Tasting Room at le Quartier Francais, The Test Kitchen, Truth Coffee Roasting HQ and VickyChristina’s Tapas Bar y Restaurante.
