An exciting new tourism development in Prince Albert is the establishment of African Relish, a cooking school aimed at the international and local traveller who is looking for something different. Tourists will be able to participate in hands-on interactive cooking experiences, while learning about South African food and culture and the beautiful Karoo. 

The African Relish Restaurant is open for dinner on Friday and Saturday evenings from 19h00.  They also open the restaurant for small groups or to host special functions.  Booking is essential, please contact Virna Gouws on 023 541-1381.  The African Relish Restaurant is currently not licensed so please remember to take your own bottle of wine.  Unfortunately credit card facilities are not yet available. 

African Relish hosted its inaugural Karoo Gourmet Weekend from November 14 to 16  2008. Celebrity chef Vanie Padayachee was the host chef and was joined in cooking up a  Karoo storm by Prince Albert ’s own culinary crusader Bokkie Botha.

LONG WEEKENDS, PUBLIC HOLIDAYS AND HIGH SEASON

During these periods Koggelmander will be open day and evening.

If you have any queries please call the restaurant or Kallie on 082 446 4424.

We are open from Wednesday evening through to Sunday Lunch.  Our evenings, from 7:00pm have a changing menu sensitive to the seasons and fickle tastes, of both locals and visitors.  Expect curries and oxtail in winter and lighter Mediterranean and Oriental style dishes during summer, all reflecting our Karoo location.

Our Sunday lunch is from 1:00pm.  Weather permitting, tables can be found scattered on the stoep and in the garden.  Insiders know to book these tables well in advance.  We provide a three course set menu, with a choice of two roasts, Karoo lamb and herb stuffed chicken, being the most popular.  The starter and dessert are ever changing and this represents wonderful value on a Sunday.  Latecomers have been known to accept the slim pickings.

We are licensed and have worked hard to produce a contemporary wine list.  For those who think otherwise there is corkage.  We feature the local wine of Bergwater Cellars from the Prince Albert Valley and the best of the Cape's small but popular wine makers.

Situated at the southern approach to town, at the foothills of the mighty Swartberg, this restaurant nestles opposite the historic 150 year old Albert's Mill.  From the centre of town it is a short drive to this delightful culinary experience.

Bookings are recommended for you and helpful for us.

Our price per person has been R175.00 for over a year. Food inflation for 2008 was over 10%, and gas and fuel prices have increased by more. I am therefore reluctantly increasing my price per person to R190.00 from the 8th February.
