Food Scene

I love Cattle Baron because their steaks are superb and they do not ask a corkage fee....not having to drive there is an added bonus! Their Sunday buffet is a treat and Monday night burgers are half price.

Kikka's coffee is "to die for" and I love the flavors they combine when making food - especially the grilled veggies they make as a side dish. There are two other KIKKA Coffee shops but this one sells flowers and "nice to have" gifts.

Their food is mouth-watering and well prepared. Although I love their pizzas and enjoy their starters...I always end up ordering their steaks. It's cozy and the restaurant has spectacular views of the mountains during day time. This is good for lunch or Dinner.

This restaurant is perfect for fine dining. The food is of very high quality and you will enjoy every course on their menu. It is a total treat to go there and their own baked bread is a winner. I will especially recommend this restaurant if you're interested in tasting venison such as kudu or springbok.

Sightseeing

The views from the Language Monument are spectacular: on a beautiful summers day one can see Table Mountain. The restaurant's menu is a hidden jewel because it is good value for money and makes traditional tasty South African meals. I've tasted all their mains on their menu and would definitely recommend going there. Walking on wheelchair - friendly paths and/ or hiking up Paarl Granite Rock is an extra bonus and ease to do - I did it with my flip flops once.

What better way to get an eagle's view? Also: This is so close to our home so it will be easy to do.

You can either hike up the mountain or take the cable car. Either way: If it is a sunny day with blue skies - you will see Robben Island and get a good view of Cape Town. Take note: The red City bus also makes a stop there.

This is a must and great value for money! Spend a whole day on this hop-on-hop-off bus: This is the best way to see Cape Town, Houtbay and Seapoint. The blue route has a wine tour bus included and fish and chips in Hout bay is definitely recommended. I recommend starting at the Aquarium at the V&A Waterfront. Take a back pack with snacks and drinks to get more out of your day.

Parks & Nature

There is a FREE parkrun every Saturday at 08h00 People go there with their dogs, families and whoever feels like a walk/ jog in the park. This is an awesome way to start your day! An added bonus is that you are in nature while getting fit:-)

If you'd like to see a lion and you're not able to visit a national park - this might be a good idea! These lions are not able to go back into the wild and some come from zoo's. There might be other animals such as a giraffe - but I suggest visiting their website. Also check their website for feeding times.

Everything Else

They have good wine and one can also relax next to the dam while ordering something from their menu. They have a super mountain bike trail and you will have fun enjoying the scenic route.

I enjoy the laid-back feeling of the wine estate with a huge green grass area for picnics. The picnic basket was an absolute delight and filled with tasty surprises. We enjoyed our time their with friends and the kids had a blast in the water features/ fountains. The wine was very good and I will definitely return there many more times.

There are two options at KWV: Their tasting room is at a different location but you can do a brandy and biltong tasting and many more at the tasting room. The wine Emporium currently hosts a whole new experience: SENSORIUM: There is an art exhibition where they pair artwork with certain brandy's. I enjoyed this experience so much as I have never seen anything like this before.

Getting Around

You will need a whole day in Stellenbosch: The picturesque streets of Stellenbosch are not only beautiful and a tourist attraction in itself, but it is vibrant and with artwork on the street corners. There are too many restaurants to choose from - but the food is great! You can literally choose from a R20 coffee shop to a 5 star restaurant....all on foot! This is a must - not to mention all the wine farms in the area and other gems such as Jonkershoek, the botanical gardens and Stellenbosch university.

Drinks & Nightlife

Bossa Nova is walking distance from our home. The menu is affordable and has a big variety of meals to choose from. Bossa Nova is perfect for a beer, watching some sport and having something to eat without paying an arm and a leg. I would recommend having their ribs.

Entertainment & Activities

Franschhoek is definitely worth a visit: The Huguenot Monument is there and it is fun climbing on the wine tram for a wine tour. The tram has its own website and works on a hop-on-hop-off basis. The Tram is a fun way to meet other tourists and the wine in Franschhoek is superb. The wine estates have beautiful views, some have lushes green gardens and others boast with some amazing menu's from famous chefs.
