Baia V&A Waterfront

This well appointed, large restuarant is a must if you're in Cape Town and you love seafood. We were seduced by the large selection of delectable crustaceans and fish. Our starters included oysters, King crabs and calamari, all lip smackingly gorgeous. Main courses were beautiful prawn, crayfish and langoustine platters, someone had the perfectly seared Salmon dish and I had a succulent well prepared scallop dish. We loved every morsel of these well presented excellently prepared dishes. No meal is perfect without desserts and we tucked into superb Lindt fondants, creme brulees and creme caramel. Purrfect.The table cloth was a testimony of our enjoyment of the meal, it didn't look good! We loved it! We were very surprised by the number of guests which only goes to show if you've got good food you'll have bums on seats. Booking is essential, I'd love to see the crowds in summer! Service was excellent, our waiter's recommendations were spot on. The comprehensive wine list, featuring both local and international wines and bubblies complimented our dishes perfectly. Be warned though this is not a cheap experience and the bill might leave a lasting impression too.Whenever I see this blog I think of my darling friend, Linda, living in the UK now, how I miss her posivity, charm and her very special friendship.  You're as special as Baia is, the one compliments the other for me!
