Who we are
Great food, served with a smile — since 2007.
Spez was founded by Esmeralda De Souza and Spencer Fondaumiere in 2007 and incorporated in June 2008. We specialise in fusion cuisine — classic and modern dishes from around the world — and we’ve grown almost entirely on referrals.

Our secret is a smile.
“There is nothing more sincere than a smile, and there is nothing more delicious than a meal cooked and served with a smile.”
— Esmeralda De Souza, co-founder
