We recently visited the new restaurant on the block: Urchin. This beautiful restaurant opened just 3 months ago with a modern, classy look that’s the perfect aesthetic for a relaxed night out. We were warmly welcomed by friendly and helpful staff who made us feel at home and excited for this unique fine dining experience. We ordered their sushi platter – which was absolutely amazing – followed by their set three course special for only R649.
