'Di-vine' Snails @ Delheim

ARCHIVED PAST EVENT
Delheim Garden Restaurant
VENUE:    Delheim, Knorhoek Road, Stellenbosch
MAP

Taking it slow has never been so delectable. If you head out to Stellenbosch between 22nd and 30th September, snails – that have been collected in the vineyards - will be served at the Delheim Garden Restaurant.
A range of dishes have been specially created including snail and mushroom soup, pasta escargot (similar to vongole), dolmades with rice and vine leaves and escargot paté.
 
Also known as ‘le petit escargot from the Cape’ and a little smaller than its French cousin from Burgundy, the Helix Aspersa has a better texture and a more attractive Champagne body colour. Delheim estimates that, if each snail has travelled a tenth of a food mile to get to their restaurant tables, it’s a lot – and not many foods can claim such low food miles these days!
 
So, if you are in the mood for a little cuisine Française in a beautiful setting, then come and savour ‘le petit escargot from the Cape” at Delheim Garden Restaurant!
 
For bookings, please call Delheim Garden Restaurant on (021) 888-4607.
