Monthly Dinner Club

This is a blogspot which will serve as a Restaurant Review for our Monthly Dinner Club. We are based in Cape Town and have visited restaurants since January 2001. Each month, one of the Organisers selects a new restaurant with the only rule being that it is not allowed to be a venue that the Monthly Dinner Club or one of the Organisers have frequented before.

Reviews:

- Pizza was cold. Nazty pizza was tasty though (Chicken, feta, marmalade onions)

- Not used to big tables as food did not come out all at the same time.

- NO chocolate mousse:-(

- No chicken lasagne but beef lasagne pretty good. Very garlicy mushrooms. Great.

- Butternut soup - very good. Pizza - cold but tasty. Beef lasagne was tasty & filling.

- Linguine Arrabiata was good, even though the waiting time was unusually long. Good atmosphere.
