I have a confession: I am in love. Hopelessly so. Her name is Gigi. Gigi from Cape Town. The truth is I am in love with George too. And not any George. The fabulous, Gorgeous George. Before you phone my husband & plan an intervention, you should know this: he is in on the whole […] Read more…

Whenever we are away from home without the option to cook our own food, I even start craving cottage pie & broccoli (aka simple home-made […] Read more…
A couple of weeks ago I received an invite to have dinner at ROSTO. Even though ROSTO opened its doors in September 2016 in Linden (Johannesburg), I hadn’t heard of it before. Maybe because we were living on the other side of the country? But now I am delighted to share my review of this awesome […] Read more…
