Totties Farm Kitchen in Rheenendal

16/2/2014

0 Comments

 
I was turned on to this gem by a fellow Islander - if you are looking for a day trip, this really is a must-do.  Drive out towards Knysna and take the Rheenendal exit and keep driving for about 12 kms.  You'll see the old General Store & Petrol Station on your left - Totties is around the back.

You'll find yourself in a wonderful garden oasis with simply amazing food - in the middle of nowhere.  We had the stuffed brinjal and the pesto chicken wrap and were blown away by the presentation.

If the photos above don't inspire you, visit them on Facebook or see their webpage for more photos and their menu.  We went for lunch mid-week, so no reservation was required, but I understand that for Sunday Lunch bookings are absolutely essential (not surprising!).

If you're not quite sure where they are, there's a handy map on the new Rheenendal Ramble website which highlights a number of other things to do in the area (it's pretty well-known for mountain bike territory, of course).

Finally, if you are headed out that way be careful if you return via the old 7 Passes Road via George, as there are large logging trucks using it during the week - if you're not expecting it, it can be quite exciting when you're confronted by a fully laden truck headed directly towards you at high-speed as you round a corner. Those drivers must know every twist and hairpin turn like the back of their hands.  The full 7 Passes drive from George through to Knysna offers great scenery along a windy gravel road - it's well worth it if you're a road trip fan.
