If you haven’t been to First Thursdays yet, then do you actually live in Cape Town? That is the question.
But now there is no excuse, with Friday being a public holiday, it’s time to get off your tush and off to one of Cape Town’s best nights out. And what better a place to do that, then to head on over to Great Thursdays at HQ – a full on shindig with DJs Brett Lee Aitkin and Ronald Rowley.
As per usual, HQ will be serving up their half price tapas special which I can testify to being really, really delicious and at half price it’s really, really affordable. Even if you aren’t keen to shake your tush on the d-floor, the tapas will put a smile on your face.
Best you book by calling 021 424 6373 or emailing info@hqrestaurant.co.za . You can also check them out on Facebook and the TweetMachine .
