THE POT LUCK CLUB CAPE TOWN, PLC WINTER FEAST
The Pot Luck Club Cape Town introduces the PLC Winter Feast, a new lunch concept inspired by Luke’s early experiences in Asia, particularly Korea. The idea of a table buffet is brought directly to guests, served in Japanese crockery including toban ceramic dishes specially imported for the season.
Asian food Cape Town
The meal unfolds in three waves, cold starters, warm mains, and dessert, creating a natural rhythm that is both generous and manageable. Guests begin with bread dumplings, inspired by dombolo, and burnt yuzu and miso butter, bringing a comforting, nostalgic element with a suble Japanese twist.
Delicious looking –and tasting
Malay style prawn tacos, and Japanese vegetable salad. Heartier dishes follow, including tonkatsu, Sichuan beer-braised duck, and kingklip tobanyaki with Koshihikari rice. Dessert features Japanese cheesecake with poached strawberries and roasted sesame ice cream.
Irresistible
Says Luke: “For me, this style of eating is all about connection, it’s communal, it’s generous, and it brings a real sense of comfort, which is exactly what you want in the winter months. Some of my earliest and most inspiring experiences were in Asia, particularly Korea, where food is deeply rooted in sharing and seasonality. I’ve always been drawn to the balance, the respect for ingredients, and the way a meal brings people together around the table, that’s something I’m incredibly passionate about, and it’s what we wanted to capture with the PLC Winter Feast.” The price for the Winter Feast menu is R695 per person.

SUNDAY BRUNCH WINTER EXTRAVAGANZA
Returning on Sunday, 10 May 2026, The Pot Luck Club’s Sunday Brunch Winter Extravaganza remains one of Cape Town’s most coveted weekend experiences. Guests enjoy a ten-course menu accompanied by bottomless bubbles and a DIY cocktail station with house-infused vodkas and an array of garnishes.
Deluxe oysters
The brunch begins with dishes such as smoked oysters served with passion fruit Nước Chấm, followed by a delicate prawn taco. Guests move on to brioche with quail egg, porcini hollandaise, and mushroom duxelles, and a punchy venison tartare with raisin and hazelnut XO. A Pot Luck interpretation of the classic Arnold Bennett baked smoked haddock omelette leads into a carrot risotto with pistachio pesto, followed by roast duck with foie gras.
Brilliant cocktails
Dessert features a sticky rice pudding with tropical fruit, and a whimsical selection of PLC sweets. Live jazz music adds to the lively, social atmosphere, making the brunch as much about experience as it is about flavour.
Just for you
“The brunch is about long, relaxed Sundays,” says Jason Kosmas, Executive Chef. “Guests settle in, enjoy the pace, the flavours, the music, and the atmosphere, it’s lively, social, and entirely memorable.”
Pity you can’t smell it!
Priced at R1390 per person, the brunch runs from 10 May through end October 2026. Please note that dishes are subject to change according to seasonal availailability.
