Curious what a lamb sosatie might be? Imagine chunks of tender lamb, coated with a mix of spices that includes curry, tumeric, garlic and bay leaves. Now grill it on a kebab skewer along with some dried apricots and voila — a little taste of South Africa. Our friends at the River House in Westport (CT) will be hosting a South African themed evening on January 20th to launch our Savor South Africa contest. We’re very excited to share lamb sosaties and many other fine South African foods with those who live in the Connecticut area.

The River House is a wonderful bistro located on the banks of the Saugatuck River. Gaze at the wintery scene outside and warm yourself up with a prix fixe meal that includes a spicy peri-peri chicken and a flavorful Cape Malay bobotie. For $45 per person you’ll also get to taste several delicious South African wines and of course, our personal favorite, Amarula coffee.

Please call the restaurant directly to make your reservation at: 203-226-5532, the kitchen will be open from 6pm to 10pm. We hope to see you there!
