Supper in The Hyde Hotel's London Road Bistro

Hyperli https://hyperli.com/ is an on-line site selling vouchers for bargain meals for two people
They sell other things which might be contentious, but we stick to the meals and accommodation!
The deals are in and around the big cities in SA
We have tried a few meals and accommodation deals over the years and not been disappointed
Lynne had bought one to try as the Hyde Hotel is local (London Road, in Sea Point) and it sounded good
We were there recently for the launch of Bruce Jack's Jack@Skye wine bar on the roof
They have off-street parking in their underground garage, useful as parking in the street is limited

We decided to go up to the roof for a sundowner and admire the beautiful place where we live
The mountains are sun kissed in the early evening ....

and the sea sparkles

Sommelier Awonke Tyumse was there, but just about to go off duty
We discovered that they have a happy hour every evening between 5 and 7,
where you buy one glass of Bruce's delicious wine and get another free
He suggested that we order three glasses and then we could get this bottle of Chenin for a very reasonable R120

Enjoying the evening and the prospect of not having to cook supper

The sunset was magnificent and we watched the tourist boats from the Waterfront enjoying it 

A yacht motoring for the harbour and a tanker going up the East coast

A trawler and another sunset cruise boat

Time to use our voucher, which cost a very reasonable R169 for two 200g Gourmet Hamburgers
with crisp fries and onion rings

The Deals menu. We were surprised there was a choice of sauces for the burgers
The other deal for the steak also came with dessert and was about R300
They have continued both offers and its good value for couples

Two burgers on a brioche bun and lots of very crisp chips

Innovative lighting

The Bacon Cheese burger. The onion rings were very crisp and not at all oily
We were able to take our bottle from the roof down to the restaurant. It was very enjoyable
