The Lacuna Bistro at Sun International’s upmarket Maslow hotel in Sandton has received a Diamond Award in the annual Diners Club Winelists Awards for 2014. This is the highest accolade achievable in the prestigious awards programme and requires a final score of over 90%.
Started more than two decades ago, the annual Diners Club Winelist Award is a much sought-after symbol of excellence and achievement among restaurateurs that take great pride in their wine selection and pairing of food with wine. To proudly display a Diners Club Winelist Award in their window is not an act of vanity, it is an invitation to discerning patrons to come in and enjoy a taste of greatness.
Commenting on the award, The Maslow’s general manager Johan Scheepers says: “We take tremendous pride and care in selecting the most appropriate, quality wines to pair with our menu. Our waitrons are extremely knowledgeable of the wines we offer and are well-equipped to recommend to guests the most suitable wines to pair with their meals.
“To receive a Diamond rating in the Diners Club Winelists Awards is most certainly a great source of pride for us. It indicates that we are indeed on the right track when it comes to satisfying the tastes and desires of the most discerning food and wine connoisseurs. We are committed to remaining on this path to excellence.”
