Award-winning restaurateur Luke Dale Roberts knows a thing or two about not only good but great food. Here is your chance to dine at one of his restaurants at much reduced prices.

His two popular Joburg eateries, The Pot Luck Club and The Shortmarket Club, are participating in the promotion and there's bags of time to take up the special offer. Both eateries are situated in the uber-chic and safe Oxford Parks development on Oxford Road in Rosebank, with plenty of safe parking in the basement. 

Both venues are offering four-course lunch prix fixe menus for the extraordinary price of R450 per person from March 29 to October 31 — in time to book for Easter Sunday lunch or save and splash out for a special birthday, anniversary treat or family celebration.
