We break down all the current offers and experiences to try at this hotel in Kempton Park.

Soulful Sunday Sessions

You’ll need to reserve your space in advance for Sunday lunch at The Avenue in Kempton Park. The signature restaurant at Radisson Hotel and Convention Centre O.R. Tambo serves a buffet experience curated by Executive Chef Johan van Rooyen and his team on the first Sunday of each month.

When the sun is out and the air is warm, head to the poolside for relaxation with friends and family, or in cooler weather head indoors to the warm restaurant space and be serenaded by a soulful saxophone to set the mood for the evening and the new week ahead. The experience includes a welcoming drink, your choice from a selection of Sunday lunch mains and desserts through a fresh lens, all served buffet style.

Cost: R295pp, includes a welcome drink, main course and dessert served buffet-style. Book online via email info.ortambo@radisson.com or call 011 100 4436

Gather for an afternoon tea experience at the Radisson Hotel O.R. Tambo Johannesburg

With plush furnishings and gorgeous natural light washing in, the lobby dining area at Radisson Hotel O.R. Tambo Johannesburg is certainly a grand spot to take high tea.

And you can expect the food to be equally exquisite. Bought to us by chef Johan van Rooyen and his team, you can expect dainty finger sandwiches along with a host of other savoury bites for a first course.

The high tea experience cannot be complete without the obligatory scone with whipped cream and preserves and a beautiful patisserie for good measure. Then finally, a spread of perfectly executed sweets including fruit confections and patisserie. Tea is included in the serving, while wine and drink are for your own account.

Cost: R300pp, includes a pot of tea and sweet and savoury confections served buffet-style. Book online via email info.ortambo@radisson.com or call 011 100 4436
