Fodor's Expert Review Terra Mare
Owner-run Terra Mare has become a favorite with locals and tourists alike, offering not just great freshly prepared meals and affordable wine but a wonderful dining experience in a friendly and laid-back setting. The owners produce opulent food with French, Italian, Afrikaans, and German influences; kudu fillet and chef Thabo salad are favorites, as is the three-mushroom risotto. As for dessert, how does limoncello sorbet or tiramisu sound? A good selection of wines, not limited to wines from the Paarl area, is available. Enjoy your meal on the terrace overlooking the Paarl vineyards, or have a drink in the cozy bar. Swiss-born Olivier and Italian Delenia are hands-on and have created a warm and inviting space; customers become regulars and soon become friends.
