There is nary a soul in the greater Cape Town metropolitan who has not indulged in a late night prego roll/steak pie/box of Grandpa/Yogi Sip/SteriStumpi/R15 litre of milk while filling up their car at the Engen On Orange, AKA Club Orange.

My personal preference is the 125g bag of Woolworths Fruit Pastilles.

It is a grand marriage of bakery, chicken rotisserie outlet, Woolworths, and petrolium. That’s a very beautiful thing.

And it’s gone. For FOUR TO SIX WEEKS. This has been confirmed by the managerial staff at the Engen on Orange.

Apparently they’re renovating the entirety of the inside of the building. Probably to install larger printers. You know, to PRINT CASH at an even faster rate.

Can you even begin to fathom what the revenue of that place must be over a six week period?

The mind boggles.

In any event, if you live in the area, you should brace yourself – and your building – for weekly bouts of confused drunken rioting at roughly 03h00 on Saturday mornings.
