Franschhoek Bastille celebration

We went on Sunday, which was very civilised, although the music was a bit loud. 
We were told that Saturday was a maelstrom of enthusiastic consumption
We started with tastes of bubbly from Boschendal, Topiary and Graham Beck


Oysters from Wild peacock, pancakes from the Hospice and venison Bitterballen from Le Quartier Francaise


The best value lunch came from Mont Rochelle


There was amusement for all ages


The barrel rolling race was a popular diversion

and there were plenty of other things to enjoy



Neil Jewell showed his delicious cured meats
Nicole from Glenwood with their delicious chardonnay


































Solms Delta attracted a crowd of enthusiasts
after a most enjoyable day.
