The 25th of March is Waffleday! Yes, it is probably one of those made-up American days, but why not join the fun! Goodness knows we need it. It reminded me of this delicious no-mess-no-fuss Breakfast Waffle Jan whipped up for us a while ago. A yummy weekend treat! This was …
I mentioned earlier this year that I am on a mission to make, sip and share some of the most popular and classic cocktails out there. I kicked off this long term series with the Porn Star Martini.

I’ve always been a fan of the Hard Rock Café. Most of the times when I get the opportunity to travel, the iconic Hard Rock will be one of the first destinations I seek out. My very first experience though was a ‘local’ one. There was a Hard Rock Café …

Seeing that it is the end of the year, I decided to take a short meander down memory lane. What is more nostalgic than the memory of food? And, if you grew up in an Afrikaans-speaking household, the “Kook en Geniet” probably took a prime position as the main source …
A couple of weeks ago I was gifted with the latest release of Van Loveren’s Perlé de Jean. This summer sipper first caught my attention last year, when Van Loveren released the maiden vintage of South Africa’s first Perlé-styled Pinot Grigio Rosé.

I recently received some of Van Loveren’s Rhino Run wines to try. If you haven’t heard of this range yet, you can read a bit more here: Van Loveren continues its fight against poaching with its latest release Rhino Run wines (PR) What a noble cause, it is always great …
