Chaplin’s found its roots in Melville since 1980 and Rainold Petersen who moved to Hurlingham in 2012, changed the name to Chaplin’s Grill in tribute to his legendary Melville-based bistro – a gem amidst the fine dining establishments of Joburg in the 80′ & 90′s. At Chaplin’s Grill Rainold revives, within a contemporary dining context, his passion for delivering a superior product of food & wine and exemplary service with a trademark hands-on approach.
The menu platforms a simple yet innovative take on the traditional urban grill where elements of international flavour distinguish. Specialities include calamari salad in a mustard-dill vinaigrette, Brinjal mille feuille mozzarella and olive tapenade, venison, with the inclusion of memorable classics like roasted rack of lamb and prawn curry.
