Cavalli Estate: A Foodies’ and Scenery-Seekers’ Paradise

Cavalli Estate is a must-visit destination for foodies, scenery-seekers, and wine connoisseurs alike, nestled in the heart of Helderberg’s magnificent Cape Floral Kingdom. The estate is named after the Italian word for horses. While it may be famous for its splendid livestock, it also offers an exceptional dining experience in its waterside restaurant, headed by chef Michael Deg.

A Passion for Seasonal, Whole Foods

Chef Michael is passionate about cooking with the seasons and letting the integrity of the ingredients shine, with an array of delectable dishes on his menu. The restaurant offers a three-course dinner and a flavor-packed indoor picnic, with each word prepared using fresh, whole foods.
