Restaurant I’m going to
I had the most delightful present for my birthday as I was taken to the Pot Luck Club in Cape Town.
First, let’s talk about the view: you are enjoying a 360° view on Table Mountain and False Bay as the restaurant is based on the top floor of the Silo of the Old Biscuit Mill on Albert Road, Woodstock.
Then, the food (brunch): lamb perfectly cooked, revisited fish tacos that you gobble in one bite, amazing lemon pie and smore’s for dessert. Luke knows what he is doing.
If you are in Cape Town, don’t hesitate to go, you won’t be disappointed.
Tea (kinda) I’m drinking
I am one of those coffee lovers. But, sometimes I can go a little bit overboard with caffeine and I know I have to cut down.
Well, Africa thank you for rooibos. Indeed, no caffeine, can have a subtle taste as an infusion, perfect before bed but can be more powerful, used in your espresso machine as a red cappuccino (this, guys, is heaven).
Book I’m reading
The Great South African Cookbook
Nothing better than the book description :”67* of South Africa’s finest cooks, chefs, gardeners, bakers, farmers, foragers and local food heroes let us into their homes – and their hearts – as they share the recipes they make for the people they love. Each recipe is accompanied by stunning original photography that captures the essence of our beautiful country.”
Well said, a lot of inspiration in this book with beautiful pictures that make me want to try everything.
As always, please let me know your requests and suggestions on Instagram and/or in the comments.
Thanks for reading! Have a wonderful weekend, y’all.
