Food Scene

Some of our favourite eateries.
Right across from where we live with a beautiful view on Table Mountain. This small daytime eatery has been around since 2002 and owner run by Michael and cheff Siza. The food is always good and it is well priced. Lots of vegetarian options too. Try their spicy chicken and avocado wrap and don't miss out on the best white chocolate cupcakes.
