Twelve Apostles's Azure Restaurant Receives Coveted Blazon Award
JUNE 28, 2008. The Azure, signature restaurant of Cape Town's Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa, is without doubt one of those 'special occasion venues' recognized for its incredulous location, diverse menu, and charismatic executive chef. Now this internationally acclaimed restaurant has one more accolade to add to its long list: the Blazon by the renowned Chaine des Rotisseurs.
A Blazon is an indication of excellence in food and service. The names Azure and Roberto De Carvalho (executive chef and member of The Chaines des Rotisseurs) are synonymous with the high standards diners experience first-hand, along with the exceptional service the restaurant and hotel are known for.
The founder of 'fynbos cooking' in the Cape, Roberto's personal passion for these indigenous herbs has resulted in many unique tastings of different local South African cuisine. Added to this, his Portuguese background makes his choice of menu an unusual mixture of flavours. Guests love the combination of traditional Cape with internationally Mediterranean, so it is no wonder word of the Azure spread to worldwide professionals such as the Chaine.
The Azure boasts a contemporary and relaxed interior, easy-listening background music, mesmerizing sunsets across the Atlantic Ocean, appetizing cuisine and five-star service. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served every day; the dress code is smart casual. The Sunday Brunch with live entertainment by songsters Jennie Oliver is a must-do when visiting Cape Town. Alternatively, the choice of a seafood buffet is the perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon
Located at Camps Bay, The Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa is a luxury hotel consisting of seventy bedrooms and suites, two acclaimed restaurants and conference facilities. The property is the African jewel in the crown of the Red Carnation Hotel Collection and remains committed to the tradition of surrounding guests in an ambience of unsurpassed elegance and comfort while ensuring outstanding and discreet personal service.
