January 2016 will see award winning chef and owner of The Test Kitchen, Luke Dale-Roberts take on the Johannesburg dining scene. A brand new pop-up concept embodying Luke’s signature style will be launched at the Saxon Hotel, Villas and Spa.
On his new venture, Dale Roberts says: “The Saxon is an iconic hotel and the perfect home for us to set up a new creative space” There is no doubt that Dale-Roberts will make his mark on the Joburg food scene. “I’m excited to venture into the Joburg market and see how diners there react to the Test Kitchen style of food,” he adds.
The Test Kitchen currently holds the number 28 spot of The World’s 50 Best Restaurants. It has also been awarded the title of Best Restaurant in Africa for two consecutive years, and for the past three consecutive years it has held the Eat Out Awards title for best restaurant in the country.
Dale-Roberts is no stranger to pop-up dining and the 2012 ski season in Verbier, Switzerland saw his other restaurant, Pot Luck Club, have a very successful run. This pop-up at the stylish Hotel Farinet was a huge hit and was filled to capacity all season long.
Luke Dale-Roberts is sure to set a new trend as far as dining goes in Joburg and I’m sure that he will make as huge a success at the Saxon Hotel, Villas and Spa as he done with his other restaurant ventures.
