SIBA: THE RESTAURANT AT THE TABLE BAY HOTEL IS SIMPLY THE BEST!
Luxury Table Bay hotel restaurant receives international award for fine dining excellence
South Africa’s celebrated and much-loved TV chef, Siba Mtongana, has just clinched a prestigious new international culinary award at the fifth annual World Culinary Awards.
For the second year running, Siba: The Restaurant at the five-star Table Bay hotel was named as Africa’s Best Fine Dining Hotel Restaurant Award.
Voted for by culinary professionals, media and consumers worldwide, the award recognises Siba: The Restaurant’s commitment to excellence in fine dining and was announced at a gala dinner held in Dubai on October 2.
Speaking at the event, a delighted Siba said, “Family, we did it. South Africa, we did it. Africa, we did it”.
“I am always honoured to accept this award on behalf of my team who puts in much hard work to maintain our high standards. This is what keeps guests coming back for more, and spreading the word both locally and internationally,” said chef patron Siba Mtongana. “What makes the World Culinary Awards so special is that our guests were given the chance to vote, so it is thanks to their love and support that we got to bring it home.”
The Table Bay hotel General Manager Joanne Selby said, “Siba is extraordinarily talented and we are extremely proud that she has chosen to partner with us. We know first-hand how much hard work Siba invests in her restaurant and in training her staff to international standards, so we salute her success and celebrate her win with her”.
