I finally got to try the famous Cube Restaurant! After being on my list for so long, I managed to get a booking at their new temporary home in Bryanston Shopping Centre. At R520 per person for 6 amazing courses, it's definitely value for money and the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion. ...

Joburg Staycation: The Quarters at White Light in Lanseria
Joburg is all about the WORK WORK WORK vibe, and to find a few moments to get away from it all can be a bit difficult. Enter the Joburg Staycation, a trip you can take within an hour of Joburg to just chill for a night or two. We were fortunate enough to be invited on one such trip recently ...
Introducing: The #2017ChowList
I've put a list together of all the Joburg restaurants I want to visit in 2017. There is a lot of them, ranging from the fanciest (also read most expensive) to the hole in the wall serving food that you don't particularly want to Instagram. This list just seems to grow every time I read a review ...
UberEATS vs Mr D Food in Johannesburg
I'm not going to deny it. I'm lazy AF. The thought of getting in the car to go and buy lunch fills me with dread. You see, we don't have a canteen at work, so if you were too lazy to make yourself lunch, you have to hop in the car and scout the neighbourhood for something tasty. Enter in the life ...
Urbanologi {Restaurant Review}
I’m somewhat reluctant to share this epic restaurant with you. It’s the kind of a secret you want the world to know, but at the same time, keep to yourself, because if more people know about it, it will be fully booked forever like every other mouthwatering place in Joburg. Urbanologi is a ...
Bidon Bistro in Muldersdrift {Restaurant Review}
I have a bit of a soft spot for weekend breakfasts, which probably stems from my childhood. Every Saturday or Sunday growing up, my mom would make something delicious for breakfast, from crumpets to scones, freshly baked muffins and even a good ol' fry up, it was always something to look forward ...
Riversands Farmstyle Market (near Fourways)
The next time you are travelling down the road on your way to Fourways Farmers Market, consider driving a few km's further to Riversands Farmers Market instead. No, you won't get the rad hipster vibe or have to fight off 10 other people for somewhere to sit, but you will get some great food choices, ...
Grain Restaurant in Maboneng
I was invited to the launch of Grain - food & wood in Maboneng, Johannesburg. A lonely restaurant on the edge of an urban park that has combined gluten free food options from Gihon Foods with a showroom of products from the Woodlady. This unique space has gorgeous raw wood products made ...
Breakfast Buffet at March Restaurant – Melrose Arch Hotel {Review}
I've eaten my fair share of hotel buffet breakfasts around the world as well as in South Africa (which may explain the issues I'm having buttoning up my pants lately). Therefore, I think I'm more than qualified to gauge whether or not the exorbitant prices charged are worthwhile or if you are better ...
Copperlake Brewing Co {Restaurant Review}
I may be a closet hipster. I don't have the giant black framed glasses, or the slightly tousled festival hair, but I do appreciate the kind of restaurants where hipsters like to hang out. Restaurants where the food is served on wooden boards, and craft beer is on tap. I actually just enjoy good ...
