Philosophy

The restaurant’s name is derived from the arum lily, a flower native to the Cape and which grows abundantly throughout the valley.

Symbolic of Arum’s culinary philosophy, the arum lily embodies a life-cycle of growth, rest and renewal - mirroring the estate’s commitment to regenerative and biodynamic farming. Arum aligns with the seasons, honouring the past, embracing the future and living fully in the present, in order to safeguard the land and harvest the finest possible produce for our menu.

This philosophy replenishes the soil and restores natural vitality to the land, while offering our kitchen a plethora of ever-changing fresh produce. Fermentation, ageing, and preservation are natural partners to this cycle, extending the seasonal lifespan of each ingredient while adding layers of depth and flavour.
