So, while scrolling down my Twitter feed, I found this piece from http://crushmag-online.com. It obviously resonates with me because I love doing online reviews, in fact my blog comprises of a lot of reviews and my opinion on restaurants that I hope are not offensive to restaurant owners. I know I have written a blog…

Dieu Donne wine pairing
Starting off the year was the best meet up group on this planet: Wine and Belgium Beer Connect. As usual with this meet up, you meet new friends and catch up with old ones. Sat with my good wine buddy Lindi and she introduced us to some of her partner’s Mexican friends. This made me…
Bulls in the Bush: Retreat
So let me start off saying that this passed weekend was one for the record books. I thoroughly enjoyed the company, the activities and everything that went right and wrong this weekend. It was one of my best friend’s birthdays, Melissa and she invited us for a weekend away where we’d go to Sun City…
New years eats 2017 Part 1
Staying on the theme of bacon bacon bacon, after a really crazy new years eve celebration and waking up at noon, you need something delicious and salty to cure you of the previous festivities. With minimal effort, I made bacon egg toast cups. These are great if you don’t want to dirty dishes and be…
What to eat on Christmas
I do find it weird that I am blogging on Christmas night but something weird happened today. We decided not to make plans for this festive season and wing it. I started off the morning with some salmon eggs benedict. All made from scratch. It was my 3Rd time attempt at making it. First try…
Eating to end World Hunger

But now that I see that each review counts towards ending world hunger, I am more inclined to add more reviews on this…
A sweetness you’ll enjoy
Here I go again showing appreciation to some of the country’s smallest wine farms. Yes, I’m very commercial but the pallet cannot tell the difference between the two. It’s all about what pleases the senses. My love for red wine goes deep. It’s a love story that dates back to the days of stealing rare…
Meetup: Wellington Wines
A night with Wellington wines. Have you ever thought about what Indian food and wine taste like? In all my wine days, I have never ever drank wine while eating Indian food. So this was my opportunity to eat and dine in style. The setting this time was Thava restaurant in Norwood. It’s in a…
Durbanville Hills: Wine and Biltong
I don’t know if I have mentioned before, but I love this wine. Yes, I think I have said it about other wines BUT they make the most affordable wines! Before I knew anything about wine, I used to look at the label and just buy. Durbanville Hills always had the whole “vintage” and “classy”…
Groot Constantia: Wine & Chocolate
Having not been to wine and chocolate pairing, I wasn’t that excited because I don’t have a sweet tooth. If it was meat, I would have fought for us to go there. But nontheless, my recent trip to Cape Town included, our close friend Gugu and our “dopplegangers” from the UK, Natalie and Paul, The…
