I am sure that most of you know, or at least have heard of Jamie Oliver - the inspirational and funky "naked chef" from the UK...I am also sure that being a foodie lover, you have heard the rumours that he is opening a restaurant in sunny South Africa - well the rumours are in fact true and the wait is finally over - Jamie Oliver's Italian is now open in Melrose Arch, Johannesburg!KevFabFood was fortunate and blessed enough to have received an invite to go to their soft launch of the restaurant this week and I went on Monday evening, 12 December 2016 - formal bookings are open online, with the first day of trade being Monday, 19 December 2016 and I am sure after reading my blog and seeing all the amazing photos you will want to book today - this is one exciting foodie event that both amazed, delighted and lived up to all expectations...I hope my blog does this amazing new restaurant justice!Located in the heart of Melrose Arch, Johannesburg, South Africa - Jamie's Italian is a family orientated restaurant that has the food and amazement of top fine dining restaurants...but with a relaxed, pretentious-free environment. The restaurant is very stylish with masses of space that avoids any issues of feeling too close to other patrons - the kitchen, at the back, which overlooks the restaurant and makes for exciting added entertainment as you watch the talented chefs hard at work - the restaurant is both modern, stylish and the minute you walk in, you are transported and could be anywhere in the world!The menu is funky and creative - the food...sublime, fresh and delicious! Passion runs throughout this restaurant - from the chefs, management, waiters and runners! |
