….We
final-lii
got
to
come
to
this
Swank-ii
well
talked
about
“Hot-Spot
SKYE
Roof-Top
Restaurant
&
Cocktail
Bar”
located
on
the
7th
floor
of
THE
HYDE
HOTEL,
Sea-Point.
We
purchased
a
super
deal
voucher
from
“HYPERLI”
for
a
3-Course
Gourmet
Dining
Experience
for
only
R450.00
with
a
value
of
R760.00.
What
we
also
found
to
be
nice
about
this
venue
is
the
fact
that
when
and
if
available
you
can
get
free
secure
parking
in
the
basement
of
the
hotel.
The
welcome
we
received
when
we
arrived
here
was
awesome
as
it
appeared
that
all
the
staff
were
over-lii
friend-lii
and
showed
that
they
wanted
you
to
be
here
so
that
they
can
spoil
and
pamper
you.
The
venue
is
tight,
smallish
but
with
an
incredible
atmosphere
and
ambience
they
even
have
a
cos-ii
log
burning
fire-place
for
colder
days.
Adding
to
the
snazziness
is
the
fact
that
you
have
a
180
deg
view
of
Signal-Hill
and
the
Atlantic-Ocean,
so
breathtaking
and
picturesque.
Marshall
cordial-lii
welcomed
us
and
showed
us
to
our
reserved
table
and
handed
us
over
to
Rodrick
who
cared
&
served
us
well
during
our
visit.
The
Bar
is
very
impressive
and
colourful
loaded
with
all
the
different
bottles
of
hot-stuff
of
which
all
the
love-lii
artful
cocktails
are
made
up
of.
You
will
need
loads
of
time
to
be
able
savour
all
the
fan-cii
looking
and
sure-lii
very
tasteful
short,
tall
and
super-charged
cocktails.
We
started
of
with
a
Mojito
and
a
Skye-Blaze
both
drinks
were
potent
&
flavourful.
They
have
a
nice
wooden-covered
multi-paged
Menu
with
loads
of
various
dishes
on
offer.
For
the
3-
Course
Voucher-Meal
they
have
a
separate
menu-card
which
offer
4
x
Starters,
8
x
Mains
and
4
x
Desserts
to
choose
from.
Our
Starters
were:
-
1.
Celestial
-
Pops
(Jalapeno,
2
cheeses
&
mashed
potato-croquette
covered
in
Panko
crumbs
pan-fried
and
served
with
spicy
cream-cheese)
2.
Fast
&
Fieryous
Chicken-Livers
(Tender
chicken-livers
cook
in
a
cream-ii
peri-peri
sauce
and
served
with
fresh
focaccia
fingers)
Both
starters
was
scrumptious
and
insidious-lii
delicious,
it
could’ve
sufficed
as
a
main-meal.
Mains:
-
1.
Classic
Fillet
(Perfect-lii
cooked
200g
Fillet
medallion,
topped
with
a

2.

Orange
Pork
Rib-lets
(BBQ
marinated
and
oven
roasted
Pork
rib-lets
served
with
rustic
fries
&
buttered
parmesan-sweetcorn)
Again
our
meats
where
prepared
superb-lii
and
one
could
taste
that
1st
grade
meats
&
ingredients
were
used.
For
Desserts
we
had:
-
1.
Lemon
&
Berry
Affair

2.
Chocolate
Indulgence
(Chocolate

Hazelnut
Praline
&
salted
Caramel
Sauce
served

cream)
All
we
can
say
is
Absolute-lii
decadent
and
the
right
way
to
end
the
evening
off
with.
This
venue
warrants
more
of
our
visits
in
the
future
and
yes
we
will
be
back.
NB!
One
can
true-lii
appreciate
the
views
and
surroundings
if
one
visits
in
the
day
time
as
came
on
a
rainy
day
and
almost
night-time
and
yet
what
we
saw
and
experienced
was
splendid.
The
have
Free
Guest
WiFi
all
you
have
to
do
is
ask
for
the
code.
The
Toilets
are
“Unisex”
and
very
neat
and
clean.
The
restaurant
has
daily
specials
like
Mondays
Burgers,
Buy
one
&
Get
one
etc,
etc,
even
the
Pub
has
a
“Happy-Hour”
daily
from
17:00
to
19:00.
We
high-lii
recommend
this
establishment………
