With its majestic Table Mountain backdrop, Cape Town is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. A harmonious blend of architectural styles reflects the tastes of dictates of the past as well as today’s more functional requirements. Between the high-rise office blocks, Edwardian and Victorian buildings have been meticulously preserved, and many outstanding examples of Cape Dutch architecture are found. Narrow, cobble stone streets and the strongly Islamic ambiance of the Bo-Kaap enhance the cosmopolitan ambiance of the city.

Cape Town shopping options invite you to endlessly browse. Elegant malls such as the Victoria Wharf at the V&A Waterfront, antique shops, craft markets, flea markets and art galleries abound. Specialist boutiques offer an enticing array of unusual items not readily obtainable elsewhere. Gourmets and lovers of fine wines have a treat in store, with the Constantia Winelands producing some of the finest wines worldwide.

Aside from being endlessly versatile, the tents are easy to transport and can be erected relatively quickly. The unique two-way stretch fabric means their capacity for transformation and re-invention of space is spectacular – re-determining a particular space is simply a matter of repositioning poles. F3 Bedouin tents are not restricted to outside venues, our unique products can also transform indoor venues into a tented experience.

Description
For the most succulent and superbly cooked beef, 1800° is the place to be.

The beef and other meats are grass and grain fed and carefully matured to ensure the finest flavour and the tenderest cuts. An extensive wine list featuring a wide variety of local and international wines provides the perfect accompaniment to your meal.

1800° prides itself on innovative thinking, superb service and exceptional presentation and excels in all of these areas.

Casual and laidback, 34 Degrees South has latitude.Knysna’s bustling food emporium claims that it’s “not exactly a restaurant, not exactly a bar, definitely not a deli… well, not exactly a deli… it’s an eating place, a drinking place and definitely a meeting place”. Well, it’s a good place to be if you enjoy fresh seafood and fancy a bit of shopping. 34 South is also “a gift shop, a clothing emporium, a food store, a fish monger and a bakery, too. And the finest wine shop this side of the grape curtain!”

Start with a platter of freshly shucked wild coastal oysters still tasting of salt and sea. Tuck into calamari (tubes, heads and steaks) and mussels (in and out the shell) done in many ways – in vinaigrette, masala, with peri-peri or with wine and garlic. The herring comes six ways, the fish pates four and the mezze too many ways to mention.

Traditional Greek, Spanish and Portuguese themes run through an eclectic menu that highlights Mediterranean flavours – with chicken, ostrich and vegetarian options for diners averse to seafood. With tastebuds still tingling from oysters and bubbly, the mains are sure to tantalise.

Signature dishes tempt with fresh linefish brought in through the Knysna heads, east-coast sole, linefish espetada, Portuguese sardines, jambalaya and seafood paella.

Spoilt for choice, we took the indecisive way out and opted for a seafood platter – a combo of butterflied prawns fried on the flat-top with olive oil and lemon butter, calamari, mussels in the shell, crayfish and linefish. A succulent feast of the fruits of the sea came grilled to perfection with a firm, fleshy texture. The affordable wine list is well chosen, showcasing a range of top-notch Cap Classique, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay to enhance the rich fishy flavours.

A trendy spot for lovers of Italian food, A Tavola is well worth a visit.

A warm and lively venue, the ambience throughout is friendly and diners are always made to feel as welcome as they truly are.
