Sunday was a fun day. Sunday was also Mother’s Day. With my parents living abroad there is a distinct lack of friends on these family related days. I did the usual and called up a few bastard child friends who also have parents living far away. G-man accepted the invite and we headed off to […]
Manna (Epicure) Restaurant on Kloof Street was the venue for our New Year’s day headache. I had been to the establishment before, but only for half an hour. I looked forward to my next visit and was glad that the time had finally arrived. After an extravagant lavish New Year’s night, I really wanted to […]
I’m surprised I haven’t really said anything about Camps Bay’s Bayside Cafe before, but I’ve just never really thought of it. I go there a lot and I suppose the regularity of it didn’t necessitate a mention; so I never did. (Seriously, you have to admit, I am CLEANING UP semi-colons lately). But I went […]
There was always something that bothered me about News Cafe in Green Point but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. It was suggested by a friend as a potential breakfast spot for Sunday morning. I asked if it was cozy enough. Apparently it was. What joy on arrival to find that it was, […]
I don’t mean to cuss, but I just came back from a fucking evening of note! Some good guys have opened a new club called Vegas Room. Oh, ok, I see what you’ve done. It’s like VEGAS. Ohhhh, VEEEGAS. Crazy mental! Is that what you want from us? Do you want us to go crazy? […]
One of my social co-ordinators informed me of something that should be investigated. Apparently ‘Po na na’ (my choice of pre-going-out-drinks venues (along with Osaka (Dharma’s boy))) had launched a vibe for Tuesday nights involving the screening of a movie. I went along with the plan. We scurried along on Tuesday night and, upon arrival, […]
Once you’ve dealt with Morpheus the bouncer at the foyer entrance, you get the feeling that you’re on your way to an illegal poker room. It feels like some sort of an opening scene of a Steven Segal movie. The silence of the high-speed elevator ride, girls giggling, guys shuffeling. Everyone staring at the changing […]
This is not a restaurant review so I won’t tell you that Yindees restaurant on Thursday night was very good, apart from the fact that the entire table left starving. I also won’t tell you that four stuffed calamari tubes just won’t cut it as a main course. What I will tell you is what […]
We had a pizza at Dizzy’s Jazz Cafe in Camps Bay the other night. Our table at Dizzy’s was outside, right next to the entrance to The Codfather. There was a constant stream of red-hot women strolling into the Codfather and because we hadn’t been there for a very long time we vowed to attend […]
Grabbed a steak at Nelson’s Eye restaurant in Gardens last night before Caprice. Nelson’s Eye is renowned to serve ‘Arguably the best steaks in Cape Town’ so we had to have a go. I arrived early, hoping to sort out a table for the boys before they all arrived. I walked into the restaurant. They’ve […]
We received a tip off from one of you lot (our loyal, ever adoring 2oceanvibe readers) saying that the pizzeria at the very end of Bree Street was definitely something to check out at lunch times. The main reason to go was apparently the staff – ‘smoking hot’ we were told. Well we were in […]
We hit Baraza in Camps Bay (next to Blues) for a toot before we went to Eclipse last week Thursday. There were these two youngsters spicing some tunes with a keyboard, flute and all other sorts of paraphernalia. Even machines with ‘Roland’ emblazened on the side! Now listen to me. These kids were HOT! Hard […]
I will not get myself too worked up about this one because a person of such little importance doesn’t deserve more than a couple of words. A friend of mine and I made the fatal error of doing a spot of shopping at the V&A Waterfront on Saturday morning at 9am. GOOD GOD Please promise […]
We had an early Thursday night so that we were ready for Friday night in the Northern Suburbs. My team mate and I packed our passports the night before and spent the whole of Friday going through the game plan. Oozing sex, we cruised into Cubana. Obviously they had another 7/8 foot bouncer who must […]
Keep those reports coming in. this report was given to me verbally at Caprice on Sunday. Shame, our angels at Tuscany Beach restaurant in Camps Bay are getting so inventive when it comes to bad service. Apparently a party of 8 had a table last week and the first incident included the finding of a […]
We would like to now take this opportunity to give a big WAKE UP to Tuscany Beach Restaurant in Camps Bay. Yes, the restaurant next to Caprice. Yes, the one that looks, from the outside, like it could be a bit of fun. Upon closer inspection you’ll find the restaurant is as appealing as my […]
