STOCK up on Tokara’s wholesome farm-fresh produce and freshly baked goods at Tokara Deli Essentials, open daily for the duration of the lockdown on this landmark Stellenbosch wine and olive estate.
While the normal restaurant and deli operations remain closed, the easing of the restrictions enabled Tokara Deli to open its doors selling essential produce and getting some employees working again.
The delicious assortment on offer includes freshly baked bread, pastries, home-made biscuits and rusks, Tokara extra virgin olive oil, milk, eggs, cheese, charcuterie, sandwiches, coffee beans and hot take away coffee. The essential food items offered will be expanded as more regulars find their way back to Tokara Deli instead of having to go to a supermarket.
“We launched Deli Essentials as a first step of our lockdown offering, while details of a to-go food service and various meal-kit offerings will be announced shortly,” says Wilhelm Kühn, owner-operator of Tokara Restaurant and Deli.
“Almost 80% of respondents of a survey on our planned food delivery service said that they would happily contribute to a support and feeding scheme for those Tokara Restaurant and Deli employees who aren’t able to return to work yet due to the Covid-19 countrywide lockdown. We hope to involve more employees as we initiate various phases of our lockdown strategy and that the generosity of our customers would further help to alleviate the plight of those who are languishing at home.”
