La Fromagerie: our menu

La Fromagerie at la Grange is a luncheon restaurant and part of the La Grange Gallery. It is housed in a 200 year old barn on the old Cabriére Estate in the Franschhoek winelands, established by one of the first French Huguenots to come to the valley.

Lunch is served on the verandah with mountain views. When it rains we move inside and arrange the tables around a central fire place. One can also share our huge table in the kitchen.La Fromagerie specializes in sophisticated lunches served café–style, where cheese and local wines play a major role.

We offer over 40 South African farm house cheeses, sourced and carefully selected from cheesemakers all over the country. Cheese boards are on the menu, and all 40 cheese varieties are for sale. Other cheese courses include Cheese Soufflé, Ricotta Lasagna, Grilled Camembert with caramelized pears and so on.

Also on the menu is Franschhoek Salmon Trout – either lightly seared or poached in white wine, Beef Carpaccio with Parmesan shavings, and always our special soups – served cold in the summer and hot in winter.

Fresh bread is baked daily and served with olive oil, sea salt and coarsely ground black pepper.

Wine – we strive to serve top wines and ports at affordable prices. We source them from Franschhoek and the wider wineland area. The criterium is always that they are a good match to our cheeses.
