  • Ron Zacapa Launch

    “Hi, we’d like to invite you to the Ron Zacapa launch!” “Ron Za-who-ha?” “Ron Zacapa!” “Oh, ok cool, I love clothes!” “No, no no… It’s a type of rum.” “Lies” “It’s from Guatemala” “Lies.” “Just come to the launch” “Mkay” I toddled into Kloof Street House with zero expectation. I read that it was a […] More

  • Veggie Dinner Party

    I’ve never really understood “meat and potatoes” people. I eat both, but during the week I prefer to cook lighter meals using seasonal produce. (In other words if it’s cheaper at Woolies, it’s on my dinner plate. Sorry asparagus, I miss you dearly.) So when a PR agency asked Foodblog Joburg to host a vegetarian […] More

  • Daily Dish Review

    I’m very lucky. I get to eat things and talk about them so I often tell you guys about a new wine or sauce or chocolate or something that was nice. But for the first time in a long while I’ve been COMPLETELY blown away by a product review and the incredible service on offer. […] More

  • Daleah’s Eatery Review

    One of my favourite ways to spend a Saturday morning is to visit the Neighbourgoods Market in Braamfontein. Recently though, we arrived late and found it was too crowded, so we stepped onto de Beer Street, keen to try something new – and we stumbled upon Daleah’s Eatery. Despite its small size, Daleah’s manages to […] More

The Burger Holy Grail. When we heard about The Wolfpack in Parkhurst we had high hopes. We stopped by one Thursday night in January, only […] More

  • Lekgotla Review

    I’m a Cape Town kinda gal. I like the laid back mentality, I like that I don’t need to drive for hours to get to where I want (except for Constantia, but who goes there?), I like The Mountain, the sea, the general prettiness. Joburg’s this elusive beast I tentatively visit for at most a […] More

  • Wang Thai Sandton Review

    I’m that unlucky person at restaurants. I’m the one who orders rare and gets cremated, finds fingernails in the salad and once, I kid you not, a marble in my burger. There’s only one way that I’ll know my food is safe… Let me just cook it myself, thanks. As you all may know I’m […] More

  • Junipa’s Review

    This is the last post in a series of Johannesburg Restaurant reviews…for now. List of things that I avoid: Pawpaw. Other people’s drooly pets. Maths. Children. It’s not that I don’t like children, I do. But the same way that most people don’t like sitting next to babies on planes, I typically don’t go to […] More
