Bizerca review
This is another restaurant that I should have visited long ago but just never got round to it. It would be difficult not to go with high expectations because it has been getting rave reviews and was in the Eat out top ten for 2009 and 2010. The negative comments I heard were that it…

Food & Wine Bloggers Club
The Food & Wine Bloggers Club started up a few months ago. Something useful for bloggers who want to learn from others, share what they know or simply meet other bloggers. The meetings happen monthly, the next one is July 28th (6:00pm – 8:00pm) at Café Max (126 Waterkant Street, in De Waterkant). I will…

Franschhoek Bastille Festival review
This was the first year that the Bastille Festival did not clash with the Knysna Oyster Festival which is great for those that enjoy both events (like I do). I’m not sure how this affected the attendance, but I believe it was the busiest festival so far. We decided to make a weekend of it,…

Zenzero review
It feels like ages since I’ve written a restaurant review. This Waterfront blogging gig really took over. I have some negative reviews to share with you but thought I would start with a positive one first. We’re all struggling a little with post World Cup depression so we don’t need more negativity.

Amphitheatre fan zone at the V&A Waterfront
One of the things I like about the V&A Waterfront is that they want people to come and enjoy themselves, it’s not just about getting them to spend money. The last fan zone I checked out was the free one at the amphitheatre. Because the amphitheatre is right in the middle of the Waterfront, it…

Free WiFi at V&A Waterfront

When people buy devices now, they want it to have Internet access via wireless or 3G. Most smartphones integrate with social media sites…

MTN Fan Zone at the Waterfront
The MTN fan zone, next to the Paulaner Brauhaus in the Clocktower has probably been the most popular. It is much smaller than the Hyundai Spectator zone, accommodating 500 people with enough tables and benches for everyone. The TV is huge and there is a bar and a selection of food available for purchase. It…

Sport Helicopters
One of the (many) things I love about Cape Town is that even though I have been here over ten years, there is always something I haven’t done or seen. A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to enjoy a helicopter flip over Cape Town. We all know Cape Town is a beautiful…
