After a lull in our MENU activity, suddenly, there is lots of activity and keeping up with writing and editing is pressurised. Three stories for you in this issue but another seven in progress and at least another four in the August diary
This week’s stories are about one of our favourite charities and two very special wine events. As always, click on the headlines, links or photographs to open the stories
Ladles of Love Mandela Day activities
Mandela Day, 18th July 2023, dawned wet, cold and windy but we didn't mind. We were wrapped up warmly. We had volunteered to help Ladles of Love for 67 minutes and headed to The Oranjezicht City Farm Market outside the V&A Waterfront. We had bought our tickets on line and, after checking in, headed to the area where we had pledged to do our 67 minutes. To open the story, Click on this link
Caroline's Red Wine Review 2023
Caroline Rillema is one of the best wine merchants in Cape Town. She holds two annual wine shows, her Red and White Wine Reviews. This year's Caroline's Red Wine Review was held at The Lookout in the V&A Waterfront, where we could taste many of the top red wines this country produces. Caroline chooses them and we must say she always does a superb job. The quality of the wines this year was excellent. To open the story, Click on this link
A wet and chilly day in the winelands saw us arrive at Simonsig for their VIP Vintage Day. An opportunity to taste the best from their Vinoteque under a stormy sky with resting vines. To open the story, Click on this link
