The team from Upstairs @ Harry's served some delectable eats and the evening was a great success. Western Cape AHi president Dr Willie Cilliers had been the restaurant's auditor for many years before buying it in 2017. It is thriving under the management of Donnick van der Bank and a section of the restaurant is now available for business meetings.
