in the last weekFantastic evening at vivat bacchus last night, we were so well taken care of by all of the staff, especially by Jamie, Katia and James, and of course the lovely managers Carl, Pearl and Thanos, who talked us through the biltong trolley and took us into the cheese room, which was a real highlight! We also had a beautiful bottle of rosè, recommended by wine manager Sharrol, who was very knowledgeable and chose the perfect one for us! We will certainly be returning, thank you all for a wonderful night!
