Ocean Basket’s Menu: A Work Of Art

With their revamped menu and value-added dishes, Ocean Basket remains the number one seafood restaurant choice.

Ocean Basket’s new menu truly is a labour of love. It celebrates everything South Africa’s favourite chain of seafood restaurants are built on – a variety of delicious food, ethically sourced, freshly prepared and as generous in their portions as they are warm in their welcoming.

The crisp and glossy full-colour menu is a vibrant tapestry of the finest Mediterranean cuisine at exceptional value for money. It’s creative design breaks the stereotypical ‘description-picture-price’ format one would expect to see when dining out. Instead, the emphasis is on a family style table setting, showcasing Ocean Basket’s most-loved dishes together. Best of all, the menu is structured to be simple to use and easy to understand, while still boasting lots of different contrasting flavours and foods.

Hot and cold dishes, like the Seared Salmon salad and the Prawn Special and Stirfry Veg – share the linelight. The Platter for Two and Family Platter encourages patrons to tuck in and enjoy their culinary experience among the warmth of family and friends, without worrying about a break-the-bank bill at the end of the meal. Customer favourites are also offered as combos, so patrons can have the best of both worlds. While surfing the mains (and enjoying complimentary freshly, baked warm bread), one can read about Ocean Basket’s commitment to sustainable fishing and the importance of responsibility in this regard. The innovative sushi stack on the back page doubles as an informative guide for ‘sushi tourists’ who aren’t as savvy when it comes to deciding which authentic Japanese-style dish to choose from. The new menu also includes a desert platter for six with all of Ocean Basket’s devilishly sweet favourites, an array of different sauces and a top up option for those who want a little extra on the side.

When enjoying a glass of red or white with your meals, choosing the right selection can be a serious business and one Cape Wine Master Dr Winifred Bowman has down to a fine art. Ocean Basket reeled in Bowman – Wine Master extraordinaire and qualified physiotherapist, biomedical scientist and connoisseur – for her take on wine and food pairing, to add yet another layer of value and flavour for patrons.

Ocean Basket patrons have come to expect unequalled perks and privileges, and rightly so. They’re accustomed to ‘so much more-for-less’ and look forward to five-star food without a five-figure price tag. It would seem fitting then, that they’re also faced with a work of art when choosing what to order off the menu. And even more importantly, the menu offers patrons value-added meals,” says Grace Harding of Ocean Basket. “While Ocean Basket updates menus twice a year, this time we decided to not only update our look but overhaul the customer experience at the same time. We wanted a more contemporary look but still wanted to keep some of our traditional values and trademark elements like the colour and size. It takes patrons through a food journey.
