I’m giving these guys a punt because they were put onto me by a friend and proceeded to totally and utterly blow me away. Everyone knows that the entire 2oceansvibe network has NEVER had a reliable cape town panel beater and I honestly think I’ve struck gold. Sorry, WE’VE struck gold! Ok, I had this […]
[This article was written live on Sunday morning] It’s been a blur of a weekend really and whatever transpired has got nothing to do with the fat joint I had this morning before establishing myself in the Arniston Hotel breakfast lounge. You see, not only are you dealing with a view which could make Batman […]
There is no limit as to how far 2oceansvibe can get, to get the news. That is why we have managed to get hold of some more Peddlars fire pics, including actual inside shots.. Window. Smoke. Firemen According to iafrica: Fire-fighters have been battling to contain a fire that started this afternoon at […]
This is just crazy. I mentioned Constantia’s bastion of all things festive, Peddlars on the Bend for the first time ever yesterday and today the place is burning down! WTF?! More about that as it comes in. Being close friends with the owners of Peddlars, our hearts go out to them and hope this […]
Ok, so here we go. It’s the offer of a lifetime. All expenses paid entry to La Med to watch Goldfish play THIS Sunday night! I know, it’s pretty crazy. Go ahead, pinch yourself! It SAYS 8 February, but it MEANS 15 February! (photo obviously taken by The Photographer) Now, what you have […]
I’m making use of a number of my resources this week. With the help of my friendly Butlers, there will be a number of Knead Love Boxes being sent all over town to some special angels! The contents of the Love Box Knead (Wembley Square – Cape Town) are offering the boxes (with the above […]
See what they did here? 110% ANAL Very good. They sell them (and many other hilarious signs) at that shop next to Miss K in Green Point, by the way. What, you haven’t been to Miss K !? [muffled laughter] Christ, that’s emboerrissing..
I mention a lot of cool eating and drinking establishments and shops on these pages. Everyone from Caprice and Miss K, to Vida e, Butlers and Woolworths. There is a reason for that; I’ve bought into their brands and I feel it is safe for you to do so as well. They are brands that […]
It’s quite evident that I spent last weekend in Hermanus. I told you about the sea rescue and I told you about the cock guy with the flashing blue light on the way there. But what I did NOT tell you, was about the Butlers Pizza that I ordered and had delivered to Hermanus, over […]
I thought you’d enjoy this quick focus on Cape Town’s weather in days to come. Tragic, really. Shame It’s pretty straightforward, I think you’ll find. All meetings, if any, should be conducted on the Atlantic Seaboard. Basic stuff. Coffee should be drunk at Vida e in Camps Bay. That’s a given. Lunches, dinner […]
It’s no coincidence that the owners of The Roundhouse Restaurant in Camps Bay also own the company that trains the staff at the 5-star Cape Grace Hotel . It is to this end that Fasie Malherbe and his team seem to stop at nothing to ensure you experience service never seen before in any Cape […]
As the trend for zero tolerence when it comes to cyclist’s wearing their helmets in public grows, it is interesting to note that some establishments have now made it law. This, found on the menu at Pirates in Hout Bay. 2oceansvibe and Cape Town as a whole, applaud Pirates I must say, my […]
I’ll be honest, it’s actually 10 at night and I’ve timed this article to come out in the morning, to grace you with more pearls of glory. Good morning! It all started at 1pm, you see. At La Perla. A boys lunch. It was me, “The Big H” and “The Dude” (fresh from his Kika-Sack […]
We mentioned on Wednesday that it would be 35 degrees on Thursday (yesterday). It was. It started with lunch at Caprice, and then it moved onto the beach. And then it came back again. It was a whirlwind. Like a whirlwind romance, but with no romance – just booze and bodies and extravagance and extreme […]
Whilst the cyclists carry on with their rant, we need to focus on more important things, like the weather. It’s 35 degrees tomorrow!HATING THAT! Hmm… I sense a Caprice lunch coming on.
I popped into Societi Restaurant on Orange Street in Gardens this morning for some creative writing with Iron Mike, and spotted this sign. “It’s a life’s tile“ See what they did there? They took the word “lifestyle” and changed it, to incorporate their product. ‘Cos they sell tiles, you see. So it becomes […]
I think the best way to put it into perspective would be to think back to school days when the bullies used to put “KICK ME” stickers on the back of the geeks’ blazers, and they would get “gat-skops” all day without realising why. Only this time the geeks have put the stickers on themselves […]
After a stunning meal at The Grand in Camps Bay on Friday night (with emphasis on the food, rather than the service) and a solid toot at Caprice, Saturday’s weather followed through without effort. A stunning day was had at The Entrepreneur’s pile, as we indulged in some surf and turf spectator action; with the […]
You gotta give our favourite Cape Town beer, Jack Black, a pat on the back when they bring out a tap and quietly have it installed at both Caprice and Mount Nelson’s Planet bar in the same week! JACK BLACK – on tap at Caprice and Mount Nelson’s Planet Bar Nice one – things […]
My GOD, Saturday was a gorgeous day! I cleverly didn’t over-indulge at Asoka the night before, following the launch of the first Luv Sport TV show. A good night’s sleep and a fresh joint (I went for the pinner – three drags and go) ensured maximum enjoyment of the good weather. I had breakfast scheduled […]
I’m incredibly amazed that there are still people out there that are unaware of the availability of these heavenly, ultra luxurious, evil, yet sexual treats. In Cape Town. In GREEN POINT, no less. You do know about Miss K, right? You don’t? [Muffled snigger – Holding fist to tight lipped mouth, eyes wide open, staring […]
I’m spending a bit of time in Claremont today – getting back to my roots and all that. I dropped off my car at Hannibal’s car wash and sauntered into Cavendish Square to find a little spot to write you something titillating; something completely different to what I am writing about now. I wandered around, […]
You may have noticed that new block to the right of the Vida e block on Somerset Road, Green Point. You may not have noticed our new favourite eatery called “Miss K – Food Cafe” that sprung up out of nowhere. I popped in the other day. miss k People who go there get laid […]
I surveyed Camps Bay from The Safe House, caned a joint, hopped on Libby (my scooter) and took a cruise to The Strip to scope out the skirt. You’d be a fool not to on a day like today. I liked what I saw. I parked the beast and made a couple calls on the […]
One of the rules that I constantly try and enforce on myself is not to stock up on junk food. If I have the need for chocolate or biltong or sweets of any sort, I am forced to go to the shops and get it. I can’t keep a stock of sweets and only tickle […]
So Thursday was a holiday and nothing had been planned for Wednesday night. I was meant to be sick so didn’t want to drink a lot of alcohol (I have a weird recollection of a Doctor, somewhere, telling me that “a little bit of alcohol is actually quite good for you”). I had given G-man […]
The Driver fetched The Kitesurfer and me (it’s not The Kitesurfer and “I” in this case, Mum) from the Fresnaye Heights dinner party on Friday night at about 23h30 and was given a fresh instruction, “Wadda Bar please, driver. That’s in Claremont. And let’s get some AC/DC cranking, otherwise these 13 Harman/Kardon surround sound speakers […]
I must just warn you that I am writing this after annihilating two joints and half a bottle of Whiskey. (For those who wish to increase their knowledge : whisky from Scotland has no ‘e’, but whiskey from Ireland has an ‘e’. Jamesons, therefore, is spelt WHISKEY). Ja, you know – you learn something new […]
I don’t know why, but I have a tendency to NOT get excited about incredible things that are apparently going to happen, until they do. Invariably they fade into oblivion. A good friend of mine, Tom K, an architect (we’ll call him The Architect), has been telling me about a restaurant that he and his […]
