BELLY OF THE BEAST X THE POT LUCK CLUB: FOUR KITCHENS, ONE UNMISSABLE MENU
Cape Town, South Africa, 30 May 2025: When Jason Kosmas teams up with Neil Swart and Anouchka Horn, expect sparks to fly. Jason, Executive Chef at The Pot Luck Club, joins forces with the duo behind Belly of the Beast, the ocean-focused Galjoen, and their latest project, Seebamboes. All three of their restaurants are based in Cape Town’s Harrington Street precinct, each with a distinct culinary identity and a shared commitment to seasonality, technique, and deeply personal cooking.

This collaboration brings their creative worlds together in a rare meeting of minds and menus, unfolding across two of Cape Town’s most respected kitchens. From instinctive nostalgic cooking to bold flavour-driven plates and playful reinventions of surf and turf, this is a shared celebration of craft, connection and culinary storytelling.
The collaboration begins at Galjoen with dinners on Tuesday 24, Wednesday 25 and Thursday 26 June. It then moves to The Pot Luck Club, with a dinner service on Friday 27 June, followed by both lunch and dinner on Saturday 28 June.
Expect a multi-course tasting menu that blends the voices of all four kitchens. From the deeply personal storytelling of Belly of the Beast, where the chefs reinterpret nostalgic family recipes with feeling and flair, to the layered personality of The Pot Luck Club, every dish speaks to a different influence while honouring the ingredients and technique at the heart of it all. Priced at R1500 per person. An optional immersive wine pairing experience is available at R795 per person.
About the collaborators:
Belly of the Beast is an intimate inner-city dining room run by a small, close-knit team who cook instinctively, without set menus. Guided by memory and emotion, the experience is shaped by reimagined dishes inspired by nostalgic family meals. It’s personal, immersive, and deeply expressive. Galjoen focuses exclusively on sustainable South African seafood, handled with care and clarity. Seebamboes, their newest opening, presents a reinterpretation of surf and turf, expressed through a contemporary tasting menu format.
The Pot Luck Club is one of the country’s most recognisable culinary destinations. Under Jason Kosmas, the kitchen continues to evolve with globally influenced small plates, precise execution and unmistakable personality. Its iconic setting and inventive spirit have earned it longstanding acclaim.
