For new restaurant floor manager Imke Botha, it’s all about the people. A psychology graduate, she’s infinitely intrigued by how people connect and communicate, and brings that warmth and insight to Beau, along with coolness under pressure. Interacting with guests and staff alike, it’s all about that shared vision and goal, which is to provide an exceptional and welcoming dining experience as a team. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #restaurantlife #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial

84 days of digging deep, but boy, should you be excited for what's to come! Our last grapes have been pressed, and the season is done. 🥳 Stay tuned for our full harvest report, which will go live in the next week, but for now, these winemakers need to sleep. 🫡 That's a wrap! #winemaker #winewednesday #wine #saharvest2024 #saharvest2025 #beauconstantia #constantia1685 #winemaking #workhard #playhard #slavetothegrape #winestagram #instawine #winesofinstagram #fermentation #cellar #winery #loveyourjob
| Salty, sweet and herbaceous. One of two butters that accompany Beau’s coal-fired bread. Unsalted thyme-infused butter dipped in burnt butter finished with a salty dust of popcorn and a drizzling of wild fynbos honey infused with lavender from our garden. Thyme is a wonderful partner for both the sweet and savoury elements of this butter and even assists in enhancing its natural flavour. The preparation is complex, has multiple steps and involves a mastery of temperature control and technique. In short, it’s a beauty of a slather for our corn and polenta bread. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #butter #ManleySocial
Happy Earth Day, Planet! As much as we love our vines at Beau Constantia, we also understand that they live amongst many other species of plants, insects, birds, small animals, and even us – the humans! As the human element at Beau, we believe that we all have a shared responsibility for the health of our planet and that we need to work together to achieve this goal. Two weeks ago, we finished harvesting our grapes and today we finally finished hand-sowing various inoculated and/-or prepared seeds onto our soils to create increased biodiversity, fight weeds, feed nitrogen and preserve soil moisture. Our cover crops for the year: Field Pea, Haymaker Vetch, Crimson Clover, Saia Oats, Pink Serradella, Barley Silage, Triticale, White Mustard, Canola, Lupins, Medic and Japanese Radish. So, as our vines begin to shed their leaves and enter a period of well-deserved rest, look down towards our soils and behold the beginning of an entirely new life cycle. Full circle! How did you show our planet some love today? ❤️🌍 #beauconstantia #constantia1685 #earthday #farmingforthefuture #oneplanet #viticulture
| It’s our daily bread: these sweet corn and polenta loaves that pull apart into fragrant toasty slices ready to be shared, baked in copper pots in the coal-fired oven every single service. When that warm fresh-bread-out-of-the-oven smell hits the kitchen, we’re so ready to reach for the butter. In our case, nothing showcases our bread better than our own house-cultured butter. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #cookingwithfire #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
As we move towards the main event, in keeping with our Chefs Warehouse tradition over the years, we've always opened up a tried and tested favourite to enjoy it with.

Tim Atkin MW's Winemaker Of The Year anyone? 🏆 We digress... ...Next up on our line-up by Chef Ivor: Japanese Chicken Master Stock Risotto: Pickled Onion Butter, Truffle & Goats Cheese Mousse.

Just 20 minutes from Cape Town, Beau Constantia is an exceptional place to share adventurous food, gorgeous wines, meaningful conversation with friends, and we've been returning since 2017, for good reason. The restaurant at Beau Constantia is a glass-encased location in Constantia Valley, with these jaw-dropping views of terraced vineyards and wine culture. What's not to love? To start, coal-fired bread (that's honestly life-changing), a bottle of Raats Haarlem To Hope and a quick catch-up with Chef/Partner Ivor Jones. Watch this space for what is going to be a Friday feast that we can't wait to share! #LaurasWorld #LaurasWine #ChefsWarehouse #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #BeauConstantia #Constantia #LaurasTravel #LaurasTravelSouthAfrica #loveConstantia #ConstantiaWineRoute #ChefIvorJones #visitConstantia #laurasdineChefsWarehouse #RaatsFamilyWines #BruwerRaats
| What are we eating? Not a Black Forest Gateau. Desserts should always be fun, and to that end, we’ve taken that old favourite, the Black Forest cake, and turned it upside down, sideways, and basically lit a firecracker underneath it. From the bottom up: hazelnut praline, chocolate feuilletine (aka crumble), port-poached summer cherries, espresso jelly, teeny tiny marzipan balls, amaretto foam and cocoa powder. We love it; we think you will too. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #dessert #blackforestgateau #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| AWARENESS. In the kitchen, timing is everything. Teamwork is the only way to ensure all dishes bound for one table are ready simultaneously. This means no chef is an island. As the team works together, there’s constant checking in, verbally and visually. Like everyone in our kitchen, Keagan, who is a chef de partie – which means he runs his own section – will not make a single move that is not coordinated with the other sections. Listen, watch, go. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #chefsofinstagram #cheflife #capetownchefs #ManleySocial
| It’s called the king of citrus: the pomelo, which comes from Southeast Asia, is the sweeter milder cousin of the grapefruit. We freeze the segments, bash them around a bit, and serve this cool side with our linefish sashimi. With the southern Thai dressing and smoked coconut crumb, it makes the fish that much more vibrant. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #pomelo #sashimi #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| Coal Roasted Pumpkin. Let’s take it from the top, where splashes and swirls of gorgonzola cream intermingle with Madagascan caviar, white anchovy and smoked macadamia to elevate the humble pumpkin in wild and wonderful ways. Not your garden variety pumpkin dish, either in flavour profile or preparation. Before it even meets these other intense flavours, this pumpkin’s journey begins in the oven with a good char-roasting. This is how we build layers of flavours. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #cookingwithfire #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| It’s all in the details. Like these daisy chains of cured egg yolk that brighten the churros & smoked snoek dish, one which positively rocks with flavour. Says Ivor: “It was a complete shoot from the hip moment. Curry and eggs -- eggs work really well with Cape Malay spices. The Malay jellies made with sherry and red wine vinegar with Malay spice. This with the smoked snoek – such a signature Cape fish – and the fatty, parmesany, smoky Klein River Gruyère in the catalan. It all came together so so nicely.” #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #gastronomy #curedeggyolk #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| Fun with cocktails. Meet the Boulevardier: Beau’s new bougey cocktail with a pedigree we’ve muddled for the flavour win. Created by general manager Tyrone, it’s an amped up variation of the classic Boulevardier that is a variation of another famous cocktail, the Negroni. Hence the muddling. Served in a glass perfumed with the smoky spice of charred cinnamon bark, it’s a mix of Woodford Reserve bourbon, aged vermouth – Martini Rosso aged in-house in our own toasted French oak barrel – Campari, Madagascan vanilla and a twist of orange. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #cocktails #boulevardier #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial

| Coal Roasted Beetroot. Like the best of the classics, this vegan dish starts with a slow-simmered stock, which ultimately gives this dish its unique character. This one, made with garlic, ginger and carrot, gets distilled into a port and black pepper jus that underscores the layers of roasted golden beetroot, house-made baked cashew nut and green peppercorn cheese and crispy fried sweet potato. Here at Beau, vegan dishes get the same serious treatment and love as everything else on the menu. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #cookingwithfire #capetownrestaurants #vegan #vegetarian #ManleySocial
| You know it’s early autumn when you see figs in the fire at Beau. These purple beauties will caramelize like deeply flavoured sweets, absorbing just enough smoke from the oven to give them gravitas for our new Fig Leaf “Froyo” dessert. Why Froyo? Because dessert should be playful. Our oven is an infinite source of flavour, whether the end product is savoury or sweet. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #cookingwithfire #dessert #figs #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial

In the kitchen, we’re there for each other, in the pursuit of excellence, in the high pressure moments, in the teaching moments, in the banter and in the laughs. In other words, in the everyday existence that is Beau. A few captures of Aimée and Bhakti exuding all the feels within the span of a few minutes, on “the hot section”, where hot dishes are prepared. @ivorjonesct @liam_tomlin_chefs_warehouse @clairegunnphoto #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #cheflife #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| Fact: Chefs get all the attention and accolades, but a chef-driven restaurant is nothing without a solid GM. Our general manager Tyrone is there for our guests – making sure their experience is nothing short of pleasurable – but he’s also there for the staff, for the suppliers, for the curated wine selection, for the flowers on tables, for the air con and the ice machine and a gazillion other details. Which, in the end, all comes back to making guests feel welcome and comfortable. Tyrone takes care of Beau with grace, humour and professionalism. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #restaurantlife #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| At Beau, we’re all about the layers…..layers upon layers of flavours and textures. When it comes to vegetarian and vegan food, this couldn’t be more critical: the deep savouriness and crunch we aim to create can require extra effort and coaxing. We always say we believe all dishes are created equally. Being vegetarian or vegan shouldn’t entail a sacrifice for either the diner or the chef, and we proudly offer abundant choices for both. This is no afterthought: great thought and care have gone into making sure that ALL these dishes are as delicious and exciting as everything else on our menu Look for this new vegan coal-fired beetroot dish soon on our menu. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #Vegetarian #Vegan #plantbased #ManleySocial

| The salty crunch of fennel, coriander, cacao nibs, buckwheat and rolled oats on Amadombolo: flavourful dumplings ready to be steamed. Just one component of the dish called “We Eat With Our Hands” – and the carrier for scooping up beef tartare and liver parfait with mushroom emulsion and bramble jellies. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #Dumplings #ManleySocial
A day well spent at the vineyard drinking wine & eating cheese 🤍🍷🧀🇿🇦
| Artist or chef? The lines are often blurred. The crafty stencil is an indispensable tool in Beau’s toolkit, used for “painting” intricate patterns on the plate. Ivor has loved working with stencils since his Test Kitchen days. Whether purchased online or homemade from a recycled plastic lid, stencils allow chefs to quickly and precisely lay down an eye-catching edible foundation from which to build a dish. “I love the form and structure it gives a dish.” It also helps to position the components on the plate, just right. Knowing how things work makes them more magical. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #ClaireGunnPhotography #chefsofinstagram #cheflife #ManleySocial
| Churros & Smoked Snoek. We enjoy food more when we eat it with our hands. We connect with it on a different, deeper level than when using a knife and fork. This, Ivor firmly believes. Churros & Smoked Snoek is a reinvention of a Beau dish, in which dombolo evolved into churros, which in this case are light, crispy and speckled with the added crunch of curry leaves, sumac and sesame seeds. The churro is the implement – ready to scoop up a divine mousse of smoked snoek and Klein River Gruyère Catalan. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #eatwithyourhands #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial

| In the kitchen, we don’t always smile when we work. But, we are always connecting with the food. In that, we find immense joy. Bringing the chef’s vision to life and knowing that we are setting the scene for our guests to connect with each other around the table. It’s what gives us purpose. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #chefsofinstagram #cheflife #ManleySocial
| Vantage. Building a dish requires looking at it from all angles. The overhead view. The side view. The counter level view. It’s got to look good and interesting no matter where the eye is. This is part of the creative process, and it starts with Ivor’s first sketches as his imagination takes off. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #chefskills #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| Head chef Chad has been on this journey with Ivor since their Test Kitchen days. At Beau since Day One, he is strength, calm and humour under pressure. He is also a living archive of every dish every created at Beau. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #chefsofinstagram #cheflife #ManleySocial
| The time has come. It’s been eight years since Beau changed its popular oyster plate...that's the age of a Grade 3 learner! Introducing our new Oysters Beau Constantia, which we’re pretty excited about. Same luscious fresh Saldanha Bay oysters, new bright flavours of Southern Thailand. Tangy green nam jim seafood sauce, smoky chilli oil, fresh coconut milk, shimmers of apple, lime and lemongrass jelly. Cool and refreshing, they’re just in time for the dog days of summer. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #oysters #ManleySocial
| Over 90% of our food is cooked in our coal oven. Grilled, roasted, smoked, baked….it’s a signature we’ve been developing as Beau has grown up over the past eight years. Henry is a master of our oven, which is a hot fiery beast that needs constant taming and attention. You’ve got to work with the fire, not against it. Henry’s is a special skill that takes years to learn. Respect. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #chefsofinstagram #cheflife #ManleySocial
| Coal Roasted Pumpkin, Madagascan caviar, white anchovy, gorgonzola cream & smoked macadamia The coal oven is a kitchen transformer. Something other-worldly happens when pumpkin meets its hot char. It caramelises like crazy, and goes from mild-mannered squash to candy-like veg. Add umami and texture to this – caviar, anchovy, gorgonzola — and you have one sensational dish. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #cookingwithfire #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial
| A kitchen functions on teamwork and communication. More listening. Less talking. Morning meetings set you up for the demands of the upcoming day and night. Same menu; different day – hake instead of kingklip, a special anniversary celebration. This is how we plan for smooth service. There would be no team at Beau without communication…and morning coffee. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #ManleySocial #chefsofinstagram #cheflife
Constantia🍇🍇🍇 По дороге в Кейптаун мы видели большое количество виноградников. В сочетании с видом гор - загляденье. В тот момент промелькнула мысль "вот бы погулять там". А когда мы открыли для себя прелести красных автобусов, то смогли и воплотить эту идею. ЮАР довольно крупный мировой производитель вина - 8 место. Следовательно, виноделен там в избытке. И каждая не прочь провести для тебя экскурсию с дегустацией. А если ты пожелаешь, то можно и остаться переночевать. Но это для тех, у кого есть время и средства. Мы же были ограничены. Да и если честно, то я такой себе спутник на винодельни, со мной даже выпить нельзя😂 Поэтому мы ограничились простым посещением, так сказать посмотреть что это и как это. В этом нам помог наш красный автобус, доставивший нас в район Constantia. Constantia старейший винодельческий район, расположенный в пределах юго-восточных склонов гор, разделяющих Кейптаун и залив Фолс Бэй (False Bay). На этой небольшой территории под виноградники отведено 500 га и расположено всего семь хозяйств. Первой нашей остановкой стала старейшая винодельня Южной Африки – Groot Constantia. Это было одно из первых винных поместий, основанное губернатором Капской Провинции. Отсюда берет начало прекрасная традиция виноделия в Южной Африке. Мы погуляли по ухоженной территории, посмотрели постройки и виноградники. Естественно, весь досуг этого места сосредоточен на винах и их дегустации. Поэтому делать там особенно нечего, особенно непьющим людям 😂 Для разнообразия мы решили посетить ещё одну винодельню, расположенную чуть выше - Beau Constantia. Как я поняла, она видовая, ибо обзор потрясающий. Я даже немного загрустила, представив, как мы могли сидеть с Крис с большими бокалами вина и обсуждать их вкусовые особенности 😂 А так, мы только насладились красотой момента 🥰 Бонусом, в лучших традициях своей авантюрной натуры, я умудрилась получить веткой дерева по своему прекрасному лбу😂 Зато на втором этаже автобуса прокатились😂😂😂 #BeauConstantia #BeauConstantia #o5vittske #9марта2023
| It’s not just butter. Cultured in-house – a three day process – that starts with cream and buttermilk. Carefully formed into delicate oval-shaped quenelles, spoonful by spoonful. That’s just the start. These creamy beauties will be dusted in a salt that gets its intense flavour from an oven smoke of eight hours over eight types of wood. Just one offering that illustrates the care and deep dive Beau takes to make dining exceptional. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #Butter #ManleySocial

The pass. The last stop in the kitchen before completed dishes go out to guests. The place where every detail is scrutinised, leaves are adjusted, an occasional smudge is erased. Once these plates and bowls get the chef’s stamp of approval, the urgency ratchets up. It’s service time. Sous chef Brad is one of the gatekeepers of the pass, making sure that nothing that leaves the kitchen is any less than perfect. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #ManleySocial #chefsofinstagram #cheflife

| Linefish sashimi, BBQ Southeast Asian pickle, yuzu and aromatic herb At Beau, dishes are layered. Layers of flavour and layers of components. This one, the kitchen’s Sashimi Version 12.0 at least, starts with thinly sliced freshly-caught linefish, then a rich and smoky fresh coconut pickle cooked in the bbq oven, topped with a scattering of herbs and greens. Binding these layers and lightening it all up is yuzu gel, made with fresh Peruvian mint. Touches of yuzu everywhere help make this dish even greater than the sum of its parts. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #ManleySocial #ArtofPlating #Sashimi #capetownrestaurants
The zen of pastry. Gone are the days when pastry chefs were the only calm chefs in the house. That said, the pastry section always requires elite levels of order, care, measurement and temperature control - the critical need to keep things cool: chocolate, frozen mousses, fruit and ice cream. Head pastry chef Kirbé-Leigh presides over this zone of peaceful energy that orbits the intensity of the larger Beau kitchen. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #pastrycheflife #chefsofinstagram

| Linefish & Prawns, spiced peanut salad, garlic emulsion & laksa A Southeast Asian collision course of taste and texture. There’s the bhaji-battered prawn, the Thai-style peanut salsa (heated up in Korean chilli powder), a play on laksa - a coconut-based curry sauce zinging with lemongrass and Beau’s inhouse curry paste - and a foam of toasted coconut infused milk . Influenced by travel, conceived by imagination, perfected through multiple test drives. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #capetownrestaurants #ManleySocial

Wild lavender honey crème, with honeycomb and smoked cassia bark ice cream A Beau classic that’s been on the menu for yonks, with good reason. Actually many reasons. Is it the crème flavoured with fresh lavender, is it the crunch of the house-made honeycomb, is it the ice cream cool yet warm with cinnamony cassia or is it the squeeze of lavender-infused wild honey on top? You’ll have to decide for yourself. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #desserts #theartofplating #pastrycheflife #ManleySocial

Coal-seared yellowfin tuna, Balinese mint sambal matah, toasted yeast dressing & coconut paper A sambal is not just a sambal. There are over 200 versions of sambal – a generally hot and spicy relish -- in Indonesia. Some are raw, some are cooked. They can be red, green, yellow or multicoloured. All have chilli. And Indonesian food is unimaginable without them. Bali is the inspiration for this mint sambal matah, a raw, crunchy and fresh contrast to a beautifully seared piece of tuna. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #theartofplating #sambal #ManleySocial

| Chefs are always teaching, questioning, workshopping, sharing techniques and shortcuts, seeking ways to work better. The ongoing rotation of student chefs through Beau’s kitchen brings this process to life every day, in prep and in moments of service. How can this presentation be improved? How can it both please and arrest the diner’s attention? It could be simply rotating a leaf 20 degrees. Or placing the first component 1 cm off centre. Or using a few less strands of angel hair chilli. It may seem like minutiae but these are the many strands that knit together to bring a chef’s vision to glorious life. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #ChefsofInstagram #Cheflife #ManleySocial

| Braaied Karoo Lamb, whipped ricotta, BBQ Ras El Hanout Dressing & Pomme Dauphinoise The oven is our identity. Salt + fat + heat = succulence and a killer crispy crust. Beau’s lamb saddle is scored and sprinkled with Maldon salt and slow-cooked in the open coal oven before a final flash of high heat for optimal crunch. The coal oven imparts so much flavour to the lamb. The char is also in the dressing, a spice and oil-based sauce that gets its intensity from a good old smoke in the closed-door oven. #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #cookingwithfire #theartofplating #Lamb #ManleySocial

It's widely known that Churros has played a significant part in Spanish food culture for many a generation but did you know that the delicious dough originates in China and was introduced to Spain by Portuguese traders? We serve our version as part of our "Churros & Smoked Snoek" dish, which is accompanied by Klein River Gruyère Catalan, Cape Malay Spiced Jelly & Cured Egg Yolk. Enjoy the journey! Book via the link in our bio. 📸: @clairegunnphoto #ChefsWarehouseBeauConstantia #Churros #ChefsWarehouse #BeauConstantia #ClaireGunnPhotography #ManleySocial

Loving all the wine tasting opportunities so conveniently located near Cape Town! I knew they produced good wine but I didn’t know it was THIS good! This is one of my favorite things to do when traveling, at least in countries that produce wine! . . #beauconstantia #winetasting #tommythetrekker #tommyaroundtheworld #tommyhafner #winetasting #travel #capetown #southafrica #exploretocreate #travelmore
