The name "Rosmead"
has long been associated with Cape Town’s suburbs. The promise of
fresh rolls, pastries and confectionery as well as mouthwatering
delicatessen with a distinction for Eastern Cuisine. The huge
demand for the cuisine expertly prepared in the Flagship store in
Claremont compelled a move to the Central Business District in
Cape Town and the brand new image is all the rave. From humble
beginnings in the quiet suburb of Claremont, the family run
business soon developed into a name with patrons requiring more
than just a conventional Deli.
The business soon steered away from mainstream retail into a more
specialized store focused on customer service providing fresh
cuisine seven days a week, including all public holidays. With the
development of an in-store coffee shop in the Claremont branch,
the new modern store in Cape Town undertakes to provide more than
that. Developed around trends and still providing for customers
needs, the Rosmead promise will always be to provide excellent
service to their patrons.

The corner of
Darling and Adderley Streets has always and will always have a
certain buzz about it. Most probably one of the busiest
intersections in Cape Town, commonly known as Cartwright’s Corner,
the location provides and excellent spot for the trendy modern age
deli and restaurant "The Rosmead". With a distinct New York type
appeal, the tall glazed windows provide an excellent vantage point
from both inside and out. The store has an open plan and
incorporated and on-site bakery, kitchen, juice bar and coffee
bar. With just enough retail space not to interrupt seated guests,
the store carries a range of both local and imported foodstuff.
The seating area situated on the mezzanine seats approximately 65
people and the bar areas and outside areas seat an additional 33.
The mezzanine area has a mixture of both private booths and dining
tables with the ability to cater for both private functions and
open plan parties, the place really has a feel about it that makes
it unique and different from most other delis or restaurants.
Indeed, the place carries the characteristics of being a place
where you can hang out with your buddies for an easy night out and
just chill or if it’s some one you want to impress, make a
reservation and ask them to provide you with a special setup for
you to host. The Rosmead caters for functions and meetings too.

The cuisine
prepared by the restaurant is modern, fusion food. From Asian
Steak Tornados to Crème Brulée with Berry Compote, there will
always be something to suite your taste-buds. The signature
breakfasts include French Toast with a Twist as well as Eggs
Benedict prepared with Eggs, Pastrami and Spinach topped with
Hollandaise Sauce on a Traditional English Scone. The Signature
Main Course Meals are Traditional Afghan Kofta prepared with Flat
Bread and Roast Vegetables, Asian Steak as well as Chicken Stir
Fry with Chinese Egg Noodles and Indonesian Soya Sauce, Preserved
Ginger and Sesame Seed. The menu is A-la-Carte and on certain
Sundays and Public Holidays they have a fixed menu and almost
always offer a dessert as a treat for next to nothing!
The Rosmead has three chefs: Chef Craig Richards specializes in
Swiss Confectionery and does more than justice to their excellent
range of Pastries and Confectionery. Chef Hassan is the Executive
Chef and is accompanied by Chef Abu-Bakr and their team of
qualified kitchen staff assist in providing you with a wide range
of exotic cuisine to suite cosmopolitan crowd often found in the
restaurant. The drinks menu has over 120 drinks from pure fruit
juices to virgin cocktails as well as a range of specialized teas
and coffees. For a relaxing wind-down at the end of the day, The
Rosmead is quite the place to be. Rated four out of four in the
Cape Towner restaurant review, the place is definitely worth a
visit.
