I love having Rik home from Bots, for many many reasons but one is because he makes ridiculously good food. I definitely pick up a pound or twelve when he’s here, but it is so worth it. This night he made the most scrumdiddlyumptious pork chop, mash and coleslaw. I don’t know about you, but […]

Sheesh, the Lady Gaga concert in Cape Town snuck up on me like a ghost in a haunted house. I was so excited when I bought the tickets (months earlier) and then kind of forgot it was happening, life got busy and chaotic and all of a sudden it was the day of the concert. […]

Oh my goodness totally addicted to Zara. They’ve recently opened at the V&A Waterfront and I spent ages browsing through their store. I was pleasantly surprised by their awesome selection of clothing which isn’t all that expensive. What I really dig are their “basics” items – the quality is rad and I got some great […]

Kitty and Paul had just moved into their new spot – which is totally awesome and Mieka (the pooch) is loving life with the garden. What better way to celebrate moving into a new place (which is tiring and stressful) than a perfect day and a braai. And what was to be on the braai, […]

It’s been forever since I have written and I have so much to share, mostly it revolves around all of the delicious food I have been enjoying. Cape Town has so much to offer in amazing restaurants, but this means that sometimes the homemade stuff isn’t given the lime light it deserves. I enjoyed 1x […]

The Rikster arrived home form KZN for a brief holiday and I decided it was time to take him to one of my favourite spots for dinner in the city. La Boheme in Sea Point. Now if you haven’t been here before you are seeeeeriously missing out. But fair warning you’ll probably need to book, […]

I don’t think I mentioned that the Parentals were in the states, Detroit to be exact, for w whole three month! A lot happened in that time and it’s fair to say that they were missed. On their return they had a gazillion stories and as many photos – so the Wam decided to have […]

OOOOOOHHHHH my goodness! If you haven’t been to Borusso’s in Kenilworth, Cape Town you are missing out on a taste sensation, not to mention one of the coolest restaurants in the burbs. Borusso’s makes the BEST pizza in town as far as I’m concerned. I’m not sure if it’s because of the awesome and generous […]

When Reen and Mo come to visit they often request this pasta. Now if you’ve been to a Primi Piatti and not had the Recco pasta you are missing out! I absolutely love the flavour combo of this, which is a tomato base with curry flavour and rounded off with cream …

Last week I met friends for dinner at Pastis in Constantia. I haven’t been here for ages! I used to go there often with friends who lived up the road (at “The Venue” as we called their spot), however since they moved out of there I haven’t been. Since two of us were coming from […]
