{"product_id":"south-africa-stellenbosch-de-volkskombuis","title":"De Volkskombuis","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou eat at De Volkskombuis in cottages built in 1902 as housing for labourers on the Vredenburg farm, designed by Herbert Baker. The cottages were converted to a restaurant in 1968 by Historical Homes, fell into disrepair, and were restored again in 2016 by the Rupert family. The restaurant now occupies the same buildings on Aan-de-Wagenweg in Krigeville, a short distance from Stellenbosch's centre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cottages stand as they were built, with thick walls and low ceilings. The restoration was careful to preserve their character while making them fit for a working restaurant. The kitchen serves the area as it has for generations, updated to modern standards but keeping the historic feel of the place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe restaurant is a working part of the town, not a museum piece. You come to eat in buildings that have served the area for over a century, with the same walls around you that stood in 1902.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"South Africa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51932986376412,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0829\/8256\/8156\/files\/de-volkskombuis-restaurant-krigeville-stellenbosch-south-africa-01.webp?v=1783227461","url":"https:\/\/murmurgo.com\/products\/south-africa-stellenbosch-de-volkskombuis","provider":"Murmurgo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
