Exposed by Her PR

One of our favourite bloggers, Benike of I Love Foodies, has signed up for a 21-Day Yoga Challenge to raise money for the Red Cross Children's Hospital. This care facility is in desperate need of funds for their ICU Improvement Project, which aims to expand the unit’s capacity with beds, 24/7 nurses, and medical equipment.

While she welcomes you to simply bet on whether or not she will actually manage to complete the 21 days (this is a challenge in itself), she hopes that you'll be more tempted to donate and help make the world a better place, one yoga class at a time!

Her fundraising target is R5 000 - every bit counts!

Those who know me will know that I always strive to be 110% productive, but sometimes this can be a little exhausting – physically, mentally, and emot

Cucina L***a - by Andrea and Oscar Foulkes - is an elegant restaurant set in the former Muizenberg residence of Count and Countess Natale L***a (now a national monument). The menu is a combination of classic and innovative dishes, which are served in the most opulent of rooms - think pressed ceilings, Baroque furniture and oil paintings that hang in gold, ornate frames.

Head Chef Monché Muller (who gained invaluable experience from Luke Dale-Roberts at The Test Kitchen) creates a symphony of textures and flavours while the pianist Jean-Paul Grimaldi-Lasserre creates a symphony of sounds in the double-volume space, with his diverse repertoire ranging from Classical music to popular modern works.

Post dining, a browse around the upstairs gallery is recommended.
