Hey! Clay
Welcome to Hey! Clay, a delightful art cafe nestled in the serene coastal community of Chintsa, South Africa. This charming spot offers more than just food; it's a creative haven where culinary delights blend seamlessly with artistic expression.
At Hey! Clay, the culinary experience is as diverse as the pottery options available. The menu is a medley of flavors, crafted to satisfy all palates. Meat lovers will relish the perfectly grilled Rump Steak, prepared just the way you like it, with bespoke toppings like Cowboy Butter that melt deliciously into the steak's surface. For a surf 'n turf treat, try the Rump topped with succulent Queen Prawns, drizzled in a fragrant herb butter sauce — a dish that promises a burst of taste with every bite.
Not to be missed, the Saucy Rump is a crowd favorite, lavishly smothered in creamy mushroom or cheese sauce, ensuring a rich and satisfying meal. If you're feeling adventurous, opt for the Rump Escargot, skillfully topped with snails and a secret sauce that elevates this dish to gourmet status.
For those leaning towards lighter fare, the chicken options are equally appealing. The Chicken Schnitzel, crumbed and fried to a golden perfection, can be paired with a delightful cheese or mushroom sauce, while the juicy grilled chicken breast, enhanced with herb butter, stands as a healthy yet delicious choice. Seafood enthusiasts will find solace in offerings such as Beer Battered Hake and tender Calamari, both dishes expertly fried to golden-brown perfection and rich in flavor.
The inviting atmosphere at Hey! Clay is as soothing as the food is delectable. With lovely outdoor seating surrounded by nature, diners can enjoy their meals in a peaceful setting that truly enhances the dining experience. You'll feel that creativity flows all around you, making it an ideal spot for families, friends, or anyone looking to unwind.
