Liquid Luxury
With the recent opening of LiquidChefs’ first restaurant in Zone II of the Rosebank Mall, fans can enjoy its ingenious drinks menu and delectable cuisine all year round. Freedom to choose forms the backbone of the LiquidChefs menu. There are nine choice cocktail bases to which a dash, drizzle or vast helping of LiquidChefs’ signature flavours and toppings can be added (the liquid caviar comes highly recommended). A fine food selection is also on offer, from “the light stuff” (classic salads) and “the snack stuff” (tempting canapés) to “the shared stuff” (appealing snack boards). Dreamed up by food guru Peter Goff-Wood and created by internationally trained chef Sharon Chetty, the menu is full of surprises, as is a visit to this trendy new addition to Johannesburg’s chic dining and drinking scene.
