  • my all time favorite restaurant
    By A Yahoo! Contributer, 11/20/06
    My annual trip to Johannesburg would not be complete without dinner at La Madeleine. There are many fine restaurants in the Santon/Jo'burg area & over the 26 years I've been going to South Africa this restaurant stands head & shoulders above the rest.

  • Exquisite French Cuisine
    By A Yahoo! Contributer, 10/01/06

The Chef has a great fantasy and knowledge in cooking. South-Africa should be proud of having such an artist in the country.
    Bon App

    2.) Duck - very average considering you can go to the Bell Pepper in Kensington for 1/3 of the price and eat this really like the French do.
    3.) The French chef (possibly owner) speaks such poor English that you ...
