    The collaboration draws inspiration from the 2026 Eat Out Woolworths Restaurant Awards, widely regarded as the benchmark for culinary excellence in South Africa.

    The prestigious awards celebrate restaurants that excel across every aspect of the dining experience, from food quality and technical execution to service, atmosphere and value.

    Restaurants are awarded one, two or three stars following anonymous visits by a panel of judges over an eight-month period, making Eat Out recognition one of the country's highest culinary honours.

    Diners can look forward to a four-course gourmet meal created by Durban's finest chefs.
