    This was a very pleasant afternoon in the very plush Palace dining room which is a lavishly furnished and decorated room with towering ceilings and long windows stretching from ceiling to floor. The table settings were appropriate for the room and complimented the High Tea theme.

    Staff were very attentive and there were several musicians playing background music. As you decended the huge "Gone With The Wind" staircase into the dining room you walked past a table laden with exotic sweets and other mouth watering delights. Hours 3 to 5:30 pm.

  • Restaurant Name: Squires Grill

    This is a popular restaurant specialising in various meat dishes. We dined here on a Monday evening and were lucky to get a table. There was an extensive menu on offer and I had Steak with mushrooms and a bowl of steamed vegetables, whilst my wife had Moroccan Lamb. Both meals were enjoyable and we finished with coffee.

    There was a large bar offering a variety of beers and wine.

    Recommend you reserve a table.

  • Restaurant Name: Vistas Bar & Cafe

    We visited this bar on 2 occasions for a short break whilst walking around the resort. Both times we had coffee and cake but you can also order beer, wine or spirits from the bar and smething more substantial to satisfy your hunger.

    Situated on the terrace of the Cascades Hotel there are many tables with beautiful views over the pool and gardens. It is an ideal place to relax and discuss the day's activities.

    Favorite Dish: Coffee & Cake.

    Treasure Island Deck: Relax With A Coffee or Lunch @ Waterworld

    On the lake edge overlooking the jetty, boats and other activity on the lake the Treasure Island cafe is an ideal place to enjoy a coffee or light lunch. We were there late May and the cloudless blue sky made the lake and surroundings shine.

    On our departure day we decided to have lunch at Treasure Island whilst we waited for pick up and transfer to Johanesburg airport. We sat at a table with an excellent view over the lake and ordered fish with Greek salad and a fish burger. The fish was South African perch and most enjoyable. I can recommend this cafe/ restaurant for those who enjoy a nice casual lunch with view.

    The Raj & Other Cafes: Casino Hotel - Meals At Right Price

  • Restaurant Name: The Raj & Other Cafes

    The Sun City Hotel Casino has some upmarket restaurants including The Raj, however it also provides a cheaper cafe style dining area and The Raj also operates in this area. There are a variety of cafes and nice tables and chairs. We ordered from The Raj and found our meals to be very good.

    After dining their one evening we left and 5 minutes later I noticed my wallet was missing. Quickly returned to the table where we ate but no wallet. I then asked at the pizza cafe and the manager handed it to me saying one of his staff picked it up off the floor. I left a nice tip for the honest employee.

  • Restaurant Name: Cafe Scalini

    This is an Italian style cafe with upmarket furnishings and bar. Very popular for lunch and we joined the crowd for an enjoyable light lunch and coffee. Open in the evenings with a menu which specialises in Italian food, however we did not dine there in the evening.

    Located at the rear of the Entertainment Centre close to the main entrance to the Cascades Hotel.

     I've enjoyed joining you for this 'virtual visit' Mike. Great to see the wildlife in the wild. Between the restaurants and hotels, it seems there's something to suit most tastes.
