Festive Season at Fish Shack Restaurant

SHACK RESTAURANT SUSHI AND WINE BAR                                                                                 Introduction

WELCOME TO OUR FISHERMANS STORY. We are fanatically infused to cook you totally fresh fish every day in the tastiest, interesting way at rock low prices.

Our hostess will escort you to our cocktail lounge where you will overlook Lake Fairy Glen while relaxing with a Shack Cocktail and our delectable finger food. When you are ready, we will introduce you to our fresh fish selection where you only pay for your selection of fish and salad the chef will introduce you to the Fish Shack’s   four unique cooking styles. For a more personal touch, take a seat at our Captains table where you can enjoy sushi or discuss you preference of steak While we prepare your food, take a walk in our wine cellar, sample some wine and make a selection. The hostess will offer you a wide selection of starters and fresh bread from our boat trolleys as they pass.

Even if you’re an avid fish fan, spending the day fishing can be a bit like solving a Rubik’s cube or building a ship in a bottle: a fun way to pass a couple of hours, without getting anything to show for it. Casting that line in and out of the water loses its meaning after a while, almost like saying a word over and over until it stops making sense. If you want the fish but want to avoid the repetitive-motion injury, get a seafood buffet and a glass of wine from the Fish Shack for R70.
When you suddenly find yourself craving calamari steak, one of the biggest problems with going to a seafood restaurant is that you can’t always get exactly what you want. They have swordfish deep fried in malt butter and angelfish pan-fried in lemon juice and thyme, but what you really want is slow cooked red snapper. Already putting other seafood restaurants to shame with their dedication to giving customers fresher fish than they could catch themselves, the Fish Shack also lets you have exactly what you want, exactly the way you want it. You don’t even need to throw a tantrum to get things the way you like.
Choose from their wide variety of freshly caught fish, ranging from yellowtail to Black Tiger prawns, and their chef will even let you choose how they cook it. Flame grilled and pre-marinated in olive oil, garlic, Italian parsley and The Captain’s Sauce, aptly named the Fire Boat? Or Poet Sauce - slow cooked in olive oil induced butter, white wine and a variety of fresh spices? You choose.

Elasticated trousers were designed not only to accommodate long and comfy sleep sessions, but also to allow for uninhibited indulge at all-you-can-eat buffets. While stretchy pants might not be the chicest wardrobe choice, they do serve a noble purpose, which in this case is allowing your stomach to grow without hindrance. Get the elasticated trousers out of storage and take them along for a Mongolian Mediterranean buffet at The Fish Shack for R120.

A delightful Pretoria favourite on Boardwalk Lakeside, The Fish Shack serves up Mediterranean-style cuisine and sea-side flavour. You can practically see yourself sitting on a jetty on the Greek islands, dipping your toes in the water while you savour the scents of well-prepared food.

With a variety of culinary delights wider than the brim of most sombreros, there’s flavour to tantalise any taste bud. If a perfectly seasoned cut of prime meat leaves you in something of a trance, choose from a variety of kebabs and strips and a more marinade than you could shake a buffalo-wing at. Of course, if you can drag yourself from your steak-induced stupor long enough to check out the other offerings, you’ll find salmon, calamari and shrimp; more than enough choice to add some surf to your turf. Finish off your meal with noodles, wild rice or some of the other starches on offer or maybe one of the six different salads. If sushi is more your speed, there’s an entire buffet of that too as well as a choice of six different curries.

Sooner or later you’ll have to heed to the voices of other table-dwellers who’re trying to snap you out of your buffet-trance – but all in good time. Until then, tuck into seven different delicious desserts and seven flavours of ice-cream. Once your buffet-infused moment of solitude has passed, take your time to enjoy the beautiful views of Table Mountain and explore the Fish Shack’s impressive wine bar.

Fishy Fact: Legend has it that the tastiest fish can be found in an underwater hostel directly at the centre of the earth.  Many fishermen have explained that the reason they’re such prize catches is that the hostel feeds them cake pops for breakfast, lunch and dinner; giving the fish a uniquely sweet flavour.
