A couple of new Cape Town restaurants have locals booking weeks in advance. At Jardine, regulars request seats near the windows for views of Table Mountain. If Scottish-born chef George Jardine is free, he will personally introduce his tasting menu. Otherwise, don't miss his beetroot-and-horseradish tart with pickled vegetables (185 Bree Street; 011-27-21-424-5640; jardineonbree.co.za). With its all-white decor and buzzing crowd, the Showroom is as much about the scene as the cuisine. Chef Bruce Robertson encourages guests to be creative by matching his sauces to their dishes, such as springbok shank with cream morogo and biltong dust. The space overlooks a luxury-car showroom—and in case you're in the market for a car, there's a Lamborghini for sale on the menu (10 Hospital Street; 011-27-21-421-4682; theshowroomrestaurant.co.za).
