With its unique style of a fusion between fine-dining and homely bistro, handmade crockery (made specifically and exclusively for them) and incredible service, Mondiall at the V&A Waterfront has revealed another brilliant concept for the World Cup this year.

It is all very well to buy the shirts and the flags of the country you are supporting, but usually you want to pair that with a good old beverage from that country. It is not the complete experience and you ARE missing out.

No longer! This genius special, hatched by the brilliant team at Mondiall, will now pair your dinner with the country that is playing for a much more rounded experience. You will get a country-themed tapas, main course and drink, and there are two options for each match – obviously depending on which teams you feel like indulging that day.

Tonight is the perfect night to try this out – it’s Friday, the weekend awaits and you deserve a treat after a VERY long week. Spain and Netherlands are on the cards and you deserve to kick back with a little sangria and Spanish decadence while you wait for the game to start.

Spain Tapas: Slow Cooked Pork Belly, Salsa Verde with Garlic Aioli Main: Spanish Spiced Rib Eye with Sherry Vinegar Sauce and Fries Complimentary Drink: Sangria Price: R200 V.S. Netherlands Tapas: Beef Bitterbollen with Mustard Aioli Main: Dutch Beer Steamed Mussels and Fries Complimentary Drink: Grolsch Price: R200

The match will be shown live at 21h00 on big screen TV’s around the restaurant. If you really cant brave the cold tonight, check out tomorrows fixture:

Tapas: Wild Mushroom Arancini with Spicy Tomato Ragout Main: Potato Gnocchi with Beetroot, Artichokes & Lemon Pepper Feta Complimentary Drink: Dalla Cia Classico Price: R170

As each menu is different the prices range from R170 to R200 – this is a bargain for what you get! Take your friends, gear up and fully immerse yourself in each game. You will even be rewarded with free drinks if your team scores – ask them how to claim these when you are there!
