Introducing Taste, an opportunity to enjoy exclusive benefits at handpicked local favourites and international culinary destinations when paying with any American Express Card.
Offers include:
- A complimentary bottle of wine at the ultra-chic Ten Bompas Winehouse in Dunkeld West, Johannesburg, the beautiful Benguela Brasserie & Restaurant in the Garden Route jewel of Sedgefield and the popular Life Grand Café in Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront;
- A 20% discount on the food bill at The Glass Lounge at The Cape Milner Hotel and Wang Thai in Sandton; and
- A complimentary appetiser at Sushi Burrito & Co in Birnam, Johannesburg, and Creation Wines in Hermanus, to name a few.
“We are constantly seeking ways to wow our customers. Having an Amex card in your wallet is about so much more than making a purchase, it’s a lifestyle. Taste embodies the essence of the experiences we are crafting in South Africa which hold true to the global tagline of 'DON’T live life WITHOUT IT™'. We are launching Taste with 19 restaurants countrywide and will continue to add to these on an ongoing basis, delivering incredible value with our restaurant partners,” explains Chris Wood, Head of American Express South Africa.
Creating an exceptional dining experience is at the heart of Taste, but American Express has more on the way.
The upcoming American Express Dining Awards will mark another opportunity for American Express to promote culinary excellence.
Taking place in October, Chris explains that these coveted awards reflect the company’s commitment to being part of the culinary revolution in South Africa. “The short-list of restaurants is testimony to the gastronomic brilliance in this amazing country. When locals and international visitors alike are searching for the best dining experience, this list of award-winning restaurants is ideal to guarantee a memorable time in line with the exceptional standards set out by the American Express brand,” Wood explains.

- Let the restaurant know that you are an American Express Cardmember at the time of making a reservation or on arrival; and
