  • LE QUARTIER FRANCAIS BIRTHDAY OFFERS

    11 Feb 2009 by Seth Rotherham in Cape Town Events, Food, Luxury

    I have only really now woken up from the dream that was the three night stay I enjoyed with The Muse at Franschhoek’s most celebrated bastion, Le Quartier Francais .

    At le Quartier Francais,
    the wood is wrapped in ribbon..

     

    They’ve just turned 20 by the way, so I wanted to tell you a bit more about my stay, as well as alert you to the pretty wild birthday offers they’re throwing around at the moment.

    Yes, you heard me – wild!

     

    20-years

     

    I’ve already gaaned aan about how beautiful the place is and I very much doubt you weren’t aware about I told you before (here and here ). That is why I want to tell you about the little things . The little things that the other “5-star” establishments tend to miss. The little things that you and I wouldn’t even THINK of.

    I particularly enjoyed being able to order breakfast to be eaten anywhere on the premises. I tested this to the limit and, short of serving me breakfast on the ceiling, nothing seemed to be a problem. I was also able to order whatever came to mind.

    You can order if you want
    Or you can dive into the ridiculously opulent buffet

     

    “Umm, can I have lightly scrambled eggs with little pieces of bacon in it please.”

    “Certainly, Mr Rotherham.”

    “Oh, with a bit of chopped coriander inside that as well.”

    “Certainly, Mr Rotherham.”

    “And a grilled child’s finger on the side please.”

    “Absolutely, Mr. Rotherham.”

    “What?!?!”

    “Just kidding, Mr Rotherham!”

    Good one.

    It was also a great pleasure to devour breakfast and head off for a little drive, only to find one’s car had been washed during breakfast. Very naughty, Themba!

    We popped into a restaurant down the road (owned by LQF’s owner’s family) called Bread & Wine set on the Moreson wine estate. After sampling their tasting menu we were even treated by Andre to a tour of the wine cellar and vines. I made off with their Sauvignon and was very impressed with the Chardonnay – the pineapple flavours giving away the wine’s origin. You do know that a hint of pineapple is a good sign that a wine is from Franschhoek? I swear.

    Back to our pad…at the Four Quarter Suites..

     

    A visit to Bread & Wine actually forms part of these birthday offers I was mentioning earlier. You need to go and look at those. I’ve done the sums and there is betweenR5,000 and R9,000 added value per package.

    They’ve got the 3 night “Dine-a-Stay” offer which includes accommodation, full breakfast, 3 course bistro dinner (my favourite chill out spot), 5 course tasting menu at Bread & Wine, 8 course tasting menu in the Tasting Room, gratuities included (!!) and complimentary room upgrade, on arrival, if available!

    le-quart-6
    You MIGHT want to try the tuna starter..
    I’ll mock you if you don’t

    le-quart-7
    Or perhaps a quick film?

     

    Come now! Do yourself a favour and check out their other offers (3 nights for the price of 2 etc.) on their website under Delicious Birthday Offers!

    Then perhaps you can experience the little details; the little ‘extra miles.’

    Like this post-it sticker I found on my bathroom mirror the one night (followed by a different one each night)..

    They’re on the next level, seriously.

    Thanks again, le Quartier Francais x
