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.

- Very yummy! Braise beef, short ribs... now gonna have pumpkin pie...

- Pork belly was a bit dry. Cauli mash was great.

- Pork belly was so tender yum. Very noisy with bar  next to us.

- Really good steak with lovely red wine jus. Looking forward to apple crumble.

- The food was really nice, the lady with the witch shrill was a bit of a pain. No jokes could be that funny all the time. Seriously, next time don't put a table of patrons right by the bar. (She wanted ti get laid)

- Food was excellent - the lemond was the perfect pairing for the eisbein! Risotto balls were excellent too!

- Chicken schnitzel was delicious. Hubby had a tender piece of eisbein but a bit on the fatty side. Waiting for warm chocolate run & raisin pudding.

- Awesome cocktails! I had frozen margarita and it had fresh mint and lemon rind! Perfection**.

- Dry martini (tanqueray) - like my humour.

- Tiger's milk lager - stunning craft beer.

- Strawberry daiquiri delicious and freezing.

- Graham beck pinotage & the big cheese burger.

- Correction** The Waiter brought me a mojito not a margarita.

- Crumbed calamari - delicious.

- Avo, bacon & feta pizza - awesome.

- Harf and harf pizza = pulled pork & roast lamb, ore----sum!

- I had the burger but ate most of my husband's pizzza because it was orsum! the burger was ... meh!

- Ribeye was still mooing but nice...

- Brian's burger was cold. Vibey place. Music a little loud. Calamari starter very yummy & best steak ever! Awesome cheese cake with crispy base. Really enjoyed!

- Pizzza was delicious - thin base and can order half pulled pork and half lamb. Delish! Margarita was great too.

- Vibey, buzzing, loud, hip. Everything I absolutely hate about a restaurant - but the food was astounding! I would endure the pain of hipster just for the chips!
