Christmas Lunch at Ons Huisie
Bring the whole family to come and experience a traditional Christmas buffet and festive spirit at Ons Huisie in Bloubergstrand
Ons Huisie, which means “our small home”, has a long and colourful history in the development of Bloubergstrand, and the menu offerings here reflect the West Coast tradition where dishes were mostly born out of hardship and ingenuity in an environment so stunningly beautiful but sometimes harsh, relentless and unforgiving. The Afrikaans culture is an inextricable part of the history of "Ons Huisie".
Experience the many traditional names and words that form part of the menu and relax when music takes you to places so familiar to some, but new and exciting to many others.
