Maze review
The buzz has died down now, but when Maze & Nobu opened with the One & Only hotel, everybody was talking about it. There were mixed reviews, ranging from fantastic to very average but they all agreed on one thing, it was expensive. For that reason I decided to wait until somebody invited me there,…

Waterfront Restaurant Awards 2009
Did you know that there are 74 restaurants in the Waterfront? That’s a lot. Restaurants in shopping centres are not normally the cream of the crop, in fact, I generally don’t review restaurants in shopping centres. But the Waterfront is not your average shopping centre and some of the restaurants in the Waterfront are actually…

Willoughby & Co review
If you ask 10 people which is the best restaurant for sushi in Cape Town, 5 of them will probably say Willoughby’s in the Waterfront. I have eaten at this restaurant quite a few times as my family likes to eat there when they visit from PE. However, as they haven’t visited for a while, I…

City Grill review
There are a few options when it comes to steak houses in the Waterfront, plus there are many restaurants there which can serve a good steak even though they are not specifically steak houses. Most people think of Balthazar first, prbably because they advertise the most and are quite centrally located. They like to advertise…

Balducci’s review
I has actually been a while since I have eaten at Balducci’s, despite the fact that it was one of my favourite restaurants at one stage. I have gone there occasionally to have a glass of wine at the plush bar. It’s nice to have a selection of good wines and complimentary olives and crisp bread…
