Welcome

Join us on our journey eating through our beautiful country South Africa. We will be testing out our country's variety of foods, which are as rich and as "rainbow like" as our nation. On our way we will stop by a few cinemas and watch a movie or two (We are after all movie fanatics) and if we have the money for it, do some adventures! Where to eat, what to watch or what to do in South Africa. We will try it out for you and let you know what is best. We start our journey in Gauteng. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Movie: What's Your Number


"Wonderfully off-beat" and upbeat. Not a movie to go to with your parents but we lived through it and actually enjoyed it! Anna Faris was brilliant as usual and so was Chris Evans! How can you go wrong with a co-star such as Chris. Very very Nice!

Restaurant: Bangkok Wok (Thai Fusion Restaurant) Jean Ave

COCONUT ICE-CREAM!! If you're looking for something completely different yet not too out of the ordinary then you should try Bangkok Wok. They've got unique curries that for some reason are so much different than the norm. And yes, the deserts are "to die for". Their coconut ice-cream was a nice surprise and their fried or grilled pineapple compliments the ice-cream perfectly!

Movie: Captain America


Well done, Well done. To be honest, the older sisters only went to see the movie to see Chris Evans, but we were pleasantly surprised.

With a movie like this and especially because it is Captain America you'd expect a lot of "cheesyness", but it was not the case. Like I said, a very well made movie and it had a very good story-line. The special effects were great and the 3D effects were just as great (we were ducking his shield at one point).

This one is up there with Iron Man and X-Men. Don't miss it, go to the cinema to watch this one.

Movie: Horrible Bosses

Funny funny funny, but maybe not for everyone. Horrible Bosses has a LOT of jokes with sexual references, with dirt-y jokes thrown in.

All -in-all the actors did a great job and if you're older than 16 and are looking for some cheering up then do watch this movie!

Braza: Re-establishing Itself As One of Our top Restaurants


Braza Menlyn is ranked as one of our top restaurants and for a reason. We visited them again and they didn't disappoint. Their meat, sea food and even their veggies are great! They also have, other than great food, a relaxed atmosphere and good service. Everyone in the restaurant was upbeat and enjoying themselves. You've got to make a point of visiting Braza and soon!

Movie: Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows

Every time a new Harry Potter movie comes out we wonder why another one. But the Movies don't disappoint and the last Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows is just the same.

Deathly Hallows was intriguing and thoroughly entertaining, although some might say there was something missing in the Part 2 of the movie.

Still a great story and well made movie. Definitely a movie to watch in 3D.

Movie: The Pirates of the Caribbean - On Stranger Tides

The fourth Pirates of the Caribbean was a nice surprise as the last two didn't have the great Pirates feel. On Stranger Tides is as interesting if not more interesting than the first Pirates. We were captivated throughout the movie. Captain Jack Sparrow's character was funnier than ever and the strange worlds we're pulled in and the different characters in them are great.

Definitely a must see!
