The Odd Plate - Prue Leith's Academy

Saturday - 26th April 2008

Prue Leith's academy is situated in Centurion and is a bit far to drive but it is totally worth the time and effort. The restaurant is a beautfully renovated old house in which all the students and future up and coming master chefs do all their training. The menu is not too extensive but every dish is so different and exquisite that one is still left not knowing what to order. all the waiters are students and it was so refreshing to be able to ask him what each dish was. You can either order off the menu (which changes regularly) or you can have a 5 course meal for R200. We went with the set menu, each portion is just the right size and very tasty,the wine list is affordable and interesting.

I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone. The venue and decor are wonderful, the food was interesting and extremely tasty (the students like to experiment with different dishes so its garaunteed to be different to other places). The service was excellent and our waiter was so well spoken and polite.

I would give this restaurant a 9
