Hidden gems up north
The northern parts of South Africa are steeped in mining history, when hopeful gold-seekers grabbed their pans, picks and scrapers and headed inland to join the mining frenzy.

The Mexican wave
It seems I'm a little behind on the Mexican food wave that started sweeping through Cape Town since the end of last year. Judging by a spate of online reviews and comments, it would seem that the serendipitous opening of El Burro and San Julian Taco & Tequila has caused quite a buzz in the city's dining community, with one camp championing the authenticity of the restaurants'...

The heat is on
During a recent visit to the beautifully arid Karoo village of Prince Albert, the mercury is hovering at around the mid-40s. Judging by the local kids nonchalantly walking around barefoot, this sweltering weather is nothing out of the ordinary, but something the townsfolk have come to count on.

Life's a picnic
The sunshine and heat of summer can make sitting at a formal dining table, complete with white linen and silverware, a stuffy and uncomfortable affair. But you don’t necessarily have to compromise on great-quality restaurant food in the warmer months.

Walk the streets of the world in Stellenbosch
Tucked away in the cosy shopping mall of Stellenbosch Square, Streets Café is a local eatery offering international experiences. The walls are covered with beautiful floor-to-ceiling murals of street scenes from France, Argentina, Turkey, Italy and Morocco, giving customers the experience of sitting in a side street café, somewhere in the world, as opposed to being in a mall.

Make sure your fish is green
Summer is finally in full swing. And with the warm weather comes enjoying a plate of sushi, fresh linefish, oysters or a large seafood platter, complete with crayfish. Imagine opening the menu at your favourite restaurant and realising that there is no longer a seafood section. Or no longer being able to buy fresh seafood from your local fishmonger. Or a world without sushi specials!

Doing it for the kids
To many foodies, a child-friendly restaurant is a contradiction in terms … until they have a little one of their own, that is. Suddenly, eateries with impressive wine lists and private nooks pale in comparison to those offering kiddie-proofed ponds, pint-sized portions and, most importantly, welcoming smiles.

The whitest red wine in SA
While the thought of an ice-cold glass of Cabernet Sauvignon on a balmy summer’s evening might not be an attractive one to most wine drinkers, perhaps it’s time to reconsider.
