I could not think it possible that the Eat Out Awards 2018 could be so refreshingly different, but it appears that new Head Judge Margot Janse has created a fresh new look at the restaurant judging criteria. Many of our top old-guard chefs took a severe beating at the Awards last night! (more…)

It was on a visit to the newish Lindt Chocolate Studio in the Silo District in the V&A Waterfront that I saw a list of the courses which the Lindt Chocolate Studio offers. On Saturday my Parisian friend Aurélie Jullien and I attended the two-hour Macaron baking course, and we were very proud of our baking success. We were to,d that there are only two Lindt Chocolate Studios in the world, the Cape Town one, and one in Johannesburg. (more…)

CNN describes Cape Town as one of the world’s most beautiful cities, its ocean and mountain views being what makes it particularly special. It writes that the city experiences four seasons in a day, and that allows its locals and visitors to experience a variety of things to do.

On Friday I was in the Silo District, showing my young friend Bella Bauer around this new area in the Waterfront. Spontaneously we decided to eat at FOOD, on the sixth floor of the Zeitz MOCAA Museum of Contemporary African Art. We found a stylish eatery with a Cafë and Bistro Menu, which runs until the end of the month before the eatery switches to a two- and three-course Menu. (more…)

The Sweet Service Award goes to Audi Cape Town, and its Service Ambassador Walied. I couldn’t unlock my car boot, having locked my handbag inside it, and drove to Audi Cape Town on a Saturday morning for help, not expecting any Service staff member to be on duty! But Walied was on duty, and did some wriggling with my boot, managing to open it, to find that the handbag strap had got caught in the locking mechanism of the boot! He fixed this with a smile and charm, proud to have been of service! Audi Cape Town continues to astound me. (more…)
