Restaurant Mosaic at The Orient

Food:

Fantasy Forest and Corbeille de Fleur (flower basket) are the kind of titles former chef of the year Chantel Dartnall gives her dishes on the winter menu. It’s her kind of food and the presentation and taste sensations will tickle all the senses. But there’s a practicality too, captured best in the potted wild mushroom soup and guinea fowl pie with morel sauce. She’s innovative, ingenious and captures the imagination of those who fall for her culinary wizardry.

Wine:

They boast a wine cellar of note.

Service:

It took a while to get there, but now they have the finest staff functioning sweetly together.

Ambience:

You have to succumb to the fantasy of The Orient while you have your amuse-bouche under the open sky. They have many different settings, depending on whether you’re staying the night or are simply a dinner guest. Warm evenings offer even more options and the outdoors breakfast in the pretty courtyard is quite splendid after a night of cuisine fantasy.

And...:

Visit on those special occasions for the extraordinary venue, food and geniality. (DdeB, October 2011)

We really enjoyed dinner at Mosaic on Saturday evening. It was truly world-class. Chantel's passion and creativity really shone through! The presentation of the food (artwork in itself), the quality, the different taste sensations, the great ambience - all made it the perfect evening. Thank's to Chantel for going out of her way to prepare the special vegan menu for us. It was an extraordinary gastronomic experience for us. Hmnnnn those caramelized veg kebabs and the aubergine cornet were so good and that red pepper sauce with the roasted veggies was devine! And of cause the mouthwatering risotto, yummy. And to top it all, the heavenly chocolate tower surprise! She far outdid herself and lived up to her title of chef extraordinaire!

I would like to commend Chantel and her staff at Restaurant Mosaic on outstanding service and a seasonal menu that can only be described as fit for the gods. Every single dish was exquisitely presented and the wine pairing could not have been any better. I could easily give Chantel’s cuisine a ten star rating. The staff and wine master was well informed and Chantel’s visit to the table together with the service excellence made our visit there one to be smiled upon for years to come.

We recently returned from several years abroad and were invited to an anniversary celebration at Mosaic. What a pleasant surprise to find a restaurant equivalent to Continental standards on our doorstep. Chef Chantel’s innovation and flair compares favouribly with the best and made us proud to be back. A worthy destination - she will see us again and again.
