Braai, Design & Fine2Dine at One&Only Cape Town
At ROOI, tableware isn’t just a plate — it’s a part of the story.
In the heart of Cape Town, where Table Mountain rises behind a vibrant cityscape, One&Only Cape Town offers a dining experience rooted in authenticity, soul, and sophistication. At its culinary helm is ROOI, the resort’s signature restaurant, where Chef Terrence Ford redefines South African Braai culture with fire, flavor, and finesse — served on Fine2Dine’s Curvo Forest, Aurora Green, and Kolon collections, supplied by our distributor JCP Hotelware. By working with Fine2Dine, One&Only Cape Town brings heritage to life in a contemporary, elevated way. It helps us do justice to what we put on the plate,” Chef Terrence sums up. “It supports our story. That’s what makes it the right choice.”" For Chef Terrence, tableware is an extension of the story: “Braai is rustic and visual. So we use earthy tones and textured plates — they elevate the deep colors of medium-rare steaks and vegetables charred over flame.” The Curvo, Aurora and Kolon collections, in particular, frame dishes with natural depth, while durability and non-porosity remain essential for hygiene and long-term service. “Functionality matters, of course. But what really counts is how the plate supports the food’s narrative,” he says.
