Restaurant & bars

Chef Rob Creaser has created a truly amazing menu especially for the Clipper Restaurant. Born in England he moved to Cape Town at a very young age. After completing his schooling at Wynberg Boy’s High School he joined the South African Navy for National Service. Once Rob finished his two-year chef training he decided to return to England. "My first introduction to cooking was at the Epsom Derby." After that he spent a further 6 years in England working his way through various jobs – learning as he went. Ending up at Woking; which had two Restaurants and Banqueting facilities.

"You need to move away from Cape Town to appreciate the beauty of it." He returned home to take his first position at the Mount Nelson Hotel working under the direction of Garth Stroebel. After completing two years there he moved on to the Victoria Junction Hotel where he was promoted to Head Chef. An awesome experience followed for Rob when he became executive chef at Londolozi Private Game Reserve in the Sabi Sands.

In between then and The Commodore, he took a year off and traveled through Asia. Here he came across a variety of different flavours which inspired a lot of his creative cooking.

Originally setting sail for the Caribbean, Rob was approached by The Commodore for the position of Executive Chef. "I have developed a natural passion for food and I truly enjoy what I do. At the Clipper Restaurant I try to perfect food by using the freshest ingredients and keeping it simple. The menu is varied with influences from Asia and Africa. I try and create ideas that are new and different, there are few things that feel better than when you try a new dish and everything just works!"

Your meal will be delightfully complemented with any one of our Commodore House Wine Collection. The Clipper offers a buffet breakfast, à la carte menu and light menu for the not-so-hungry.

Here light meals are available between 10h00 - 20h00.

The Cocktail Bar is open 24 hours.
