bareladiko restaurant,...
by gonatas
bareladiko restaurant, situated 27 km from cape town towards paarl on the n1 highway. It is run by a greek family. a heck of a lot of fun but you need to be a night owl to enjoy this as the party starts late.
tel: 021 981 2604. add: old paarl road, brackenfell
early evening the news cafe, durban street, bellville. for drinks and meeting people. when i get back to cape town the best thing to see is the mountain, then i know i am home.
the first thing i then do is go to the waterfront, where there is one of the nicest hotels.
the nightlife is great there;discos, bars, sea and the boats you can go for sunset tours which is splendid.
very international mixture of people in such a small place
Pockets, pockets....
by laurey81
A pair of baggy and lighweight combats were a godsend for us during our sightseeing. The big pockets accommodated the camera, sunglasses etc. and meant no need to carry a bag that could be snatched, or a visible camera round your neck to herald you as a tempting tourist for any muggers. Well worth it.
THE PROTEA
by johanl
The Protea is the national flower of South Africa. You will find different species in the Cape Good Hope nature reserve. These flowers are protected, so do not try to pick them. Seeds of these flowers can be found in local shops and they are not difficult to grow at home ( in a greenhouse).
Do enjoy the beautiful colors
There is wild nightlife in the Cape ;)

by johanl about STEENBERG RESTAURANT AND WINE ESTATE
When in CT go to the Steenberg restaurant on the Steenberg wine estate. It is towards the wine route and really worth visiting. The food is delicious and not expensive at all. Do taste the Steenberg wine. It is a good idea to make a reservation as during the weekends it is rather busy.
