Look forward to crisp greens, cured fish and a hit of bright Asian spice. Saline oysters are followed by a hit of buttery brioche, perhaps with a mushroom duxelle, and then the fresh flavours of a Ssam-style dish. Oysters are the first of four courses served as snack-sized morsels: flavour-packed bites to whet the palate. Plucked and shucked fresh from the West Coast, and topped with a dressing dreamt up by Kosmas that week, it’s a salty smack of saline happiness to start off the morning.

The Sunday Brunch menu begins – as all good brunches should – with oysters. Alongside house-infused vodkas, you’ll find a collection of spices and flavourings on hand – think Worcestershire pearls and bacon crumble – for Pot Luck’s talented mixologists to stir up a memorable beginning. With a well-guarded secret recipe as the tomato base, diners are encouraged to add their own twist. Vodka more your style? The Pot Luck Club’s Bloody Mary station has become famous in the Mother City. The ever-popular Bottomless Bubbly offers returns for the summer season, this time pouring Boschendal’s Brut and Rosé Cap Classiques – elegant expressions that are the perfect foil to Kosmas’ cooking. That means diners have to do little more than sit down, settle in and make the tough choice between bubbles or a Bloody Mary. “We want Sunday mornings to be something to look forward to – and, because it’s a set menu, you can let us do all the hard work in choosing what to eat!” “Sunday Brunch is always served as a set menu of nine or 10 courses, and we’ve purposefully done this to be an entirely different Pot Luck experience,” says Kosmas. “We’ve been working on the new menu all winter, and it’s really great to be able to welcome diners back to a Pot Luck dining experience that’s something a little different to what we usually offer.”Īnd the Sunday Brunch certainly offers an entirely new reason to ride the glass elevator to the roof of The Old Biscuit Mill in Woodstock, with a collection of dishes entirely unique to the Sunday Brunch.

“We’re just so excited to bring the Sunday Brunch back to Cape Town,” enthuses Jason Kosmas, executive chef at The Pot Luck Club. On 1 October 2023, The Pot Luck Club Cape Town relaunched its much-loved Sunday Brunch, offering a multi-course menu, Bottomless Bubbles and the best Bloody Mary in town. After a winter closure that had hungry Capetonians wondering how to fill their weekends, the answer has finally arrived.
