The building itself dates to 1855, when it was built for the foreman of the local fishery; today it is a Cape Heritage site, still owned by the fisheries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou eat in the cottage, which sits on the rocks above the beach. The kitchen focuses on seafood — line fish, calamari, and dishes using local produce — and the wine list draws from West Coast and Swartland vineyards. The dining room is simple and comfortable, with views of the beach and the bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe restaurant is family-run. The Kruger family bought it in 2015, after a chance sighting of the property for sale. They operate it with local staff, many of whom have years of experience cooking fish and local fare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cottage is on Sampson Street, named after the foreman who once lived here. It remains the reason the restaurant is here at all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"South Africa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51933112500444,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0829\/8256\/8156\/files\/gaaitjie-restaurant-paternoster-restaurant-kliprug-paternoster-south-africa-01.webp?v=1783237634","url":"https:\/\/murmurgo.com\/products\/south-africa-western-cape-gaaitjie-restaurant-paternoster","provider":"Murmurgo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
