So, the big question is, what's new? There are a couple of new interesting features waiting for you. Here are just a few of them.

Sidewalk Cafe in Vredehoek, is not only one of the most popular local haunts, catering for the full range of eccentric CapeTonians that live in the City Bowl, but is a CTA hotspot, pull past Monday to Friday and you will be sure to find one of the team sipping away at a delicious Cappuccino.

Nestled in the heart of the vibrant Kloof Street, ‘Hudson’s’ burgers are matching the simplicity of the hamburger with a host of creative touches to craft a truly delectable, palate tantalising mouthful.

Human nature is a funny thing. We find ourselves drawn towards those things that seem to have struck the right cord with our peers, and be it laziness or not, a full restaurant buzzing with activity is the sort of place you want to be… even if it means waiting for a table. Hudson’s was doing just that, and as Friday afternoon rolled on, and we rolled in, we were met by a hive of activity. Burgers were steaming out of the kitchen, patrons were laughing and chatting, and quite frankly I wanted in even before my first bite.

It’s difficult to think of a better way to describe the new Geisha Lounge other than heaven.  A cliché metaphor but please hear me out.

First of all, the entrance is an beautiful iron gate guarded by a gorgeous angelic Geisha hostess on either side. I have never had the pleasure of eating at the Geisha restaurant and looking at this scene from across the road it was difficult to predict what the inside would look like. Lucky I didn’t try because it was nothing like I would have expected.
