Wakame

Wakame Restaurant occupies one of the most impressive positions in Cape Town, just a Stone's Throw away from the spectacular Cape Town Stadium, and overlooking the vast Atlantic Ocean as it spills out from Table Bay. The view alone is worth the visit, which spreads out as far as Robben Island on a clear day, and on a winter's day, it's the perfect spot from which to watch the Atlantic Ocean storms brewing.

The food at Wakame is equally dramatic, with a wide, excitign range of contemporary fusion of classic Asian cuisine, with hints of French flair. Seafood therefore is king of the menu, with a range of traditional dishes, and a few exciting ones for the more adventurous eaters. Wakame's calamari, as a starter or main, is widely regarded as one of the best in the Cape, and offers the perfectly amount of batter on the freshest and most tender meat.

The menu is wide, the decor chic, and the crowd among the Cape's most trendy, and this all makes a trip to Wakame an experience in itself. It's a slick dining experience from start to finish, whether you're looking for a quick snack, a lengthy formal meal, or just a drink with the fashionistas on the spectacular upstairs deck.
