90. Tim Pick - Ember & Oak
The menu at Ember & Oak on Constantia Uitsig is a fantastic mix of globally inspired dishes prepared over live fires or in a charcoal oven. It's particularly enjoyable because Chef Tim Picks creations are served in a very casual, laid-back atmosphere, but the cooking is impeccable. I sat down to chat with Tim about his journey through some of our finest local kitchens to opening a deeply cool little eatery in the Southern Suburbs with his wife Judy. It's likely they'll be slammed in season, but it really is worth taking a chance and seeing if they can squeeze in a table if you're in the area. Tim's menu changes regularly and there's always something delicious to tempt you to one too many small plates.
Try booking a table on Dineplan, but if the tables allocated there are full, you can always try calling to see if there's table going begging.
