The Big Easy

The Big Easy

Author: Justine Maher
Date: 2015-10-16
There's a new hot spot in Durban: The Big Easy Wine Bar and Grill, by Ernie Els.

This new eatery is situated on the ground floor of The Hilton Hotel and is one of the new breed of establishments that actually encourages "locals'' to pop in and have their wine glasses filled, while they tuck into a delicious meal that consists of locally sourced seasonal and elegant "farm to fork" food.

The style is casual yet elegant. Think your stylish aunt's comfortable art deco lounge meets cosmopolitan urban chic.

Executive Chef Janine Fourie and Sommelier Eric Botha were handpicked and make a formidable team. A fabulous twosome that bring culture, experience and world class taste to the table.

The Big Easy is the ideal setting for lazy after dinner drinks on the terrace, a fabulous meal, a sports viewing bonanza at the high class bar or just a special occasion dinner night out in the private dining area.

In other words, "a place to be among friends".
