Virgil Kahn of Delaire Graff

Estate’s Indochine restaurant

offers an evocative fine-

dining experience

Asian-inspired cuisine gets a South

African twist at Indochine – situated

on Delaire Graff Estate in Stellenbosch

• in the expert hands of head chef Virgil
  Kahn. Using a delicate touch, this flavour
  craftsman devises dishes that have just the
  right combination of beauty and balance.
  Virgil spends much of his time sourcing
  the best products available and personally
  getting to know the suppliers that are
  able to deliver the freshness, quality
  and impeccable provenance that his
  cuisine demands.
  The kitchens at Delaire Graff Estate
  only use meat that is free of hormones

and antibiotics and which is from free-range

farms that believe in pasture rearing. Many

ingredients also come straight from Delaire

Graff Estate’s own greenhouse, including

fresh Asian herbs, micro greens and

vegetables. Imported ingredients are kept to

a minimum and sourced as locally as possible

• if not from the surrounding winelands then
  from elsewhere in South Africa.
  A talented chef with a passion for exotic
  and surprising combinations, Virgil Kahn’s
  dining philosophy defines Indochine and
  is wonderfully complemented by sincere
  and caring service, intricate design and
  breathtaking views.
