The first-class 28-suite Adderley Hotel features an exciting
separately owned restaurant “Bowl’ which is located on the first
floor. The restaurant is owner operated, and whilst it does
provide for the hotel guests, this is by no means its focus.
Bowl has an excellent pedigree coming from the same stable as
sister restaurants Wasabi, Wakame and Salushi. One of the huge
draw cards for the restaurant is the beautiful outdoor terraces
with great views of the city. One can choose from the main
terrace which seats 40 or the private terrace which seats 15 and
is ideal for an intimate function. Adjacent to the restaurant is
the funky new cocktail bar which boasts its own signature
cocktail - a Fresh Fruit Waquiri which is finished off with
Wasabi. If you prefer sipping your cocktail in more scenic
surrounds, the Rooftop offers magnificent views of Lions Head,
as well as an inviting plunge pool and a selection of light
meals. |
The hotel’s motto is “new space, old values” which not only
highlights the restaurant’s modus operandi, but has been
cleverly conceptualized in the restaurant decor where
traditional materials such as marble, wood, and brick have been
cleverly contrasted with glossy black tables and chairs and a
modern open plan kitchen. Bowl prides itself on a very
personalized experience and you are welcome to sit at the
counter and watch the kitchen operate, or chat to the Chef
whilst your meal is being prepared. Furthermore, Bowl has
pioneered a unique concept of allowing children to create their
own meal under the Chef’s supervision either in kitchen or at
the counter. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and
dinner and is an impressive venue for private functions and
parties. |
The menu features “Euroasian” cuisine and British Chef Ian
Cawkwell has taken his English, French and Asian cooking
influences and channelled them into one style - hence the term
Euroasian. All the dishes are served in bowls, which explains
the simple but very descriptive name of this fine dining
restaurant. Ian is proud of all the combinations that he has
created and his favourite entrée is the smoked salmon tartare
with sweet pickled cucumber. As a mains he recommends the confit
of duck with a vanilla just as this truly combines classic
cooking with a Euro-Asian style. For dessert, the white and dark
chocolate roulade (which is made with ricotta cheese and served
with a strawberry and raspberry compote) compliments the other
two dishes perfectly. |
