Mount Grace Launches Alfresco Feasts
Why not pick a spot with a view and settle in for an afternoon with friends, family or your love and enjoy the pleasures of dining in the great outdoors and the magnificent Magaliesburg surrounds? A variety of gourmet picnics cater for every eventuality and range in price from R150 to R250 per person.
The Garden Picnic menu features a large variety of classic picnic treats from cheeses to cold meats, quiche, mini burgers and wraps. Sushi, sliced fruits and a dessert platter complete the five-star picnic picture. The Romance Picnic features a selection of just-baked pastries, cheeses, gourmet street food and sushi as well as a decadent chocolate platter with fresh fruits and homemade marshmallows. For those winter weekends the in-room Rainy Day Picnic menu means there’s no need to venture from your luxe room surrounds. Delivered to your room, expect delights such as hearty soup with just-baked bread, a mouth-watering pasta, pancakes for dessert followed by hot chocolate. Mount Grace has even created a ‘pregnancy safe’ picnic with pasteurised cheeses and well done cheeses – ideal for a couple enjoying a babymoon at this beautiful hotel property.
Mount Grace has long had an outstanding reputation for its gourmet offerings and its unspoilt surrounds. Now guests can enjoy the best of both by indulging in their alfresco picnic offerings – what better excuse to slip away from the city for a midweek afternoon or to extend a romantic weekend by lingering under the trees or in a secluded spot on the estate with an indulgent picnic basket for company?

Whether they’ve spent an afternoon in the world-class Spa, a weekend enjoying the luxurious five-star surrounds and hotel spoils or a day relaxing under the trees at the pool, there’s no doubt that visitors to this renowned country escape can’t wait to return and do it all again.
Now guests at Mount Grace have a new indulgence to look forward to. Expanding on its already stellar gourmet reputation, the hotel has recently introduced a series of bespoke picnic menus, ranging from romantic baskets for two to in-room rainy day in-suite treats. In keeping with Executive Chef Vasti Wilson’s approach, each picnic basket is a carefully conceived feast featuring a selection of seasonal produce and suitably decadent sweet and savoury treats. Created for hotel guests and day visitors alike, these mobile alfresco feasts can be enjoyed under the shade of a tree anywhere on the sprawling estate.
