To celebrate your promotion or your first wedding anniversary, or really any occasion to set a beautiful table, head over to Jan. This award-winning address blends French gastronomy with South African inspirations in a classic yet modern setting. It's truly a masterpiece in the art of dining.

In a previous life, Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen was a photographer, a chef on yachts, and the creator of a champagne brand. One day, seizing the opportunities, this versatile artist returned to his first loves, gastronomy and culinary arts, to open his first restaurant, Jan, in Nice.

Jan got this passion for cooking from his mother and grandmother who instilled in him the sense of hospitality so cherished in South Africa. There is no doubt, in his restaurant, Jan knows how to welcome guests and put on a great spread.

In the room with blue-gray walls, stone pillars, elegant chandeliers, huge bouquet, and classic paintings create a super chic and romantic atmosphere. On the menu, three options: 3, 4, or 6 plates to choose from depending on your hunger, each time with or without food and wine pairing.

Here, the festival begins: oyster macaron, oyster leaves, buchu and apple; sweet pumpkin in a pot, wild mushrooms and creamy spicy sauce to die for; delicious sea bass, crab, pumpkin and rooibos juice. And finally, to conclude, white chocolate, delicate fermented milk sorbet and cardamom. Creative, inspired, structured.

To be paired with a beautiful selection of South African and French wines, either in harmony or on the advice of the sommelier.

It's a great moment, you come out feeling different.
