  • Summary

  • At the water's edge, amid the bustle of a working harbour, Chef Ryan Cole has opened a gorgeous little restaurant simply called COY. While the location is in the heart of the V&A Waterfront, midway between Time Out Market and The Cape Grace, it is also aloof. Isolated from the foot traffic and bustle of the precinct, unassuming but beautiful, COY sits at the entrance to Robinson Dry Dock, the oldest operating dry dock in the world.
    Well known for his innovative menus centring African ingredients and techniques, Chef Cole is exploring the coastline of Africa - through his cooking - from its southernmost port where diners have a view of both Table Mountain and the comings and goings of commercial fishing boats and luxury yachts alike.
    I don't mind suggesting COY (like Salsify) is set to be one of the great restaurant experiences of Cape Town, if not the world. Meeting with him for the second time on the show produced an absolutely fascinating conversation with a chef I greatly admire.
