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.

Fabulous

Organiser: Clarissa

Patrons: Janine, Nadine, Linda, Shawn, Lucy, Gathry, Vannessa, Amie, Derren

Review:

- Ground beef balls... Lamb shank rubbed... Need I say more... Shawn + Gathry = Moaning "Myrtels"!

- Duck was good but not the best I've tasted. The guys were "moaners" for the night. We're clearly getting too old for sitting on cushions:-)

- Sitting on cushions wasn't bad at all. Lemon chicken with cous cous was good - pity no veggies. Loved Camembert, waiting for ice cream + coffee.

- Roasted beetroot + goats cheese really good. Risotto fillet very nice + quite filling. Restaurant has nice vibe. Something different but enjoyed the evening.

- Sitting on cushions not comfy for preggie fairies.

- Food very good and belly dancer not too bad.

- Calamari worms yummy, chicken kebabs lekker, Janine interesting - semi drugged up, Muller & Meiring boys were moaning, all pretty normal...

- Calamari starter and fillet excellent. Atmosphere great but cushions take getting used to especially after a few hours. Belly dancer was good.

- Late addition: Creme brulee very good. Waitress (Susan) great!
