CAPE TOWN DIVA: Oohlala, I had lunch chez Bizerca....

Bistrot Bizerca, a French restaurant par excellence in beautiful Cape Town...have you been? I hadn't eaten there since 2012, only because it was always a bit of a shlep getting to their original spot on the Foreshore. No more of that though as they have relocated to Heritage Square, where Caveau used to be, on Shortmarket Street. I had a delicious light lunch there: a duck confit salad with winter leaf, soft quail eggs,onion croutons, avo, apple & a truffle dressing to faint for....it was a generous portion & oh~so~more'ish. That, with a glass of Tamboerskloof 2008 vino, & Clare Mack's delightful company, made for a perfect lunch. I love being able to enjoy incredible food in an unpretentious & casual setting. Bizerca has a relaxed, warm atmosphere, & superb waitrons like Messieurs Alan & Tshepo make the experience all the more memorable. I'm not surprised Bizerca is in the Fleur du Cap Restaurant Awards Top 10. For more about the restaurant & owner chefs Cyrillia and Laurent, visit www.bizerca.com *

The duck confit salad....superb...

Being an Eco diva, I was really impressed with this bottled water by Aqua V, sourced in Paarl....they use returnable & reusable glass bottles, I love it ~ the first company in South Africa to do so... would that other bottled water companies would follow suit...
