Rooftop Movies!


A few weeks ago I organised a private movie screening for my friends at the Pink Flamingo.The Pink Flamingo is one of The Grand Daddy hotels recent summer concepts and is a fantastic night out in Cape Town!
If you book a private screening it includes 32 seats for your friends, popcorn and sweets,you get to choose your own movie and 1-2 staff are allocated to your group. We organised for our friends to meet on the rooftop bar from 6.30pm onwards and the movie commenced once the sun has gone down. You can go to the bar at any time and food from the restaurant in the hotel can also be ordered and brought to you on the rooftop.
The private screening isn't the only option, the Pink Flamingo also has scheduled movies open to the public a few nights a week.....I would recommend pre-booking your tickets.
Thanks Jess and George at the Pink Flamingo for a great night.

From the beginning........

I have lived in Cape Town for the past 2 years and during this time I have discovered many of its available and hidden treasures.

This includes anything from where one can buy a pair of leggings to go with a tunic, where to get a gift to send overseas, where to grab the best takeaway coffee from town, eat brunch, meet for a drink at sundown, have clothing alterations done, find vintage pieces, find locally designed gift wrapping and cards.........the list goes on.

You might be wondering what this has to do with a blog.............
Due to many people who I have crossed paths with over the last 2 years, whether they are local or visiting for business or on holiday, I have often shared my discoveries and recommended my favourites.

After continuously writing down my favourites on scraps of paper, in guide books or in the travel journals of others, I decided to compile it all in one place.

So, here it goes!

I hope you enjoy what my Cape Town has to offer.
