Restaurants Jason Bakery Today we decided we're going to try as many new spots as we could, in an effort to rack up some additional points on FourSquare and for a change in scenery. Jason Bakery was first on our list. Jason Bakery was recommended to us by Craig McLeod, who
Restaurants Matt and I decided to meet up Matt and I decided to meet up for supper so I headed back to Canal Walk. We grabbed a coffee at Seattle, because you can never have enough. We then popped in at Col'Cacchio and had a Morituri and a Foresta split in two. The food was great.
Social Time for Swedish House Mafia I just dropped Amelia off with Britney, to go and watch Swedish House Mafia. I probably would've enjoyed the music, but I most definitely did not feel like the crowd. Guess it is back to a mall with me.
Technology iStore and the new iMac We're on a bit of a mission to find a super thin sleeve for Amelia's MacBook Air, but there are little options in George so we always pop in at an iStore when we get a chance. I also use the opportunity to see some of
Restaurants Seattle Coffee is back at Canal Walk To our delight, while walking through the mall killing some time waiting for our food at Simply Asia, we noticed Seattle Coffee was open again at Exclusive Books. We were really disappointed when they closed some time back, but it's great to have them open again. Amelia and
Restaurants Simply Asia One of our favourite spots in Cape Town, is Simply Asia. In recent months, their turn around time has become much longer than usual, but I guess it is just due to popularity, so I guess good for them. We had a 504 Traditional Phad Thai, and the 524 Exotic
Restaurants Kopi Luwak at Haas Decided to start the day trying out a different coffee spot, so we headed off to Haas [http://haascollective.com]. I saw they had Kopi Luwak on the menu, so figured it's on my bucket list so I should give it a try and I did. It was
Health M-Kem is open 24 hours a day On our way home I decided enough is enough and it was time to get something to try and tame these sinuses of mine. What better than to find M-Kem, a pharmacy that is open 24 hours a day. I grabbed some pills and we headed home. More businesses should
Restaurants Orphanage Orphanage [http://www.theorphanage.co.za] on Bree Street was recommended to us by, Craig McLeod. I was still feeling pretty much not awesome, with my sinuses and all so first thing I wanted to do when I got there was blow my nose. When you walk into their bathrooms
Life Table Bay on the Ameera Catamaran Every time Amelia and I are in Cape Town, we threaten to go out on the water, so this time we decided to actually do it. We walked around the Waterfront looking at the various tour options and eventually decided to go on the Ameera, as it was leaving soon.
Restaurants Origin to kick the day into gear If you haven't been to Origin Coffee Roasting in Hudson street, I can highly recommend you treat yourself to some good coffee and a bite to eat. First thing we noticed, was the new menu with an interesting graphical representation of the difference between all their different espresso
Health Sinus issues really suck I woke up this morning, feeling terrible. Nose just not on my side today. Well, not going to let my sinuses hold me back so off we go in search of Coffee and Breakfast
Restaurants Asoka You know you're almost in Cape Town when you drive over Sir Lowry's Pass, even though it's still quite a bit of a drive until you're in the mother city, it just has a feeling to it. We headed straight to Asoka
Social Cape Town trip a little behind schedule As things go, I started off the day with the intention of hitting the road early so as to get into Cape Town a bit earlier than usual. Good intentions aside, I had a super productive start to the day and spent longer than planned at the office. Imel, Rudie
Social G3ECS starts this week. Rudie and I spent some time today discussing the new year of G3ECS. It's going to be great fun and lots of learning. To make things easier and a little bit more predictable we'll be splitting meet ups into three main categories, Electronics, Coding and Free
Fitness Killer hot cycle Imel, Sean and I decided to take part in the Hillbillies summer series event this afternoon. Little did we know if was going to be about 42 Degrees Celsius, standing in the sun, with no shade and very little wind. The ride ended up starting at about 14:00 and
Life The bitter realisation So I guess my birthday has had time to set in. I've just realised it's two years until I am thirty. When I was in school, I had set quite a few goals, that I wanted to reach by the time I was thirty. Thinking about
Food Bolognese with a creamy twist Anyone who knows me, will know how much I enjoy food. One of the things I love doing with food is making my own rules when preparing it, so I thought I'd begin sharing some of my kitchen experiences in the form of recipes and cooking ideas. One
Social How I spent my birthday I started off the day at about 07:00 with the crew at Beans about Coffee. Headed in to the office at about 08:00, had a quick project meeting, processed some mail and then realised the team needed some coffee, so I headed back to Beans to grabs some

Technology Apple product protection In the past few weeks I have become border-line obsessed with leather and felt iPhone, iPad and MacBook sleeves. There are really quite a few companies making some awesome natural products for protecting our expensive and beloved Apple goodies. Some of the brands that are making some great sleeves include:
Life A chilled out birthday I had a pretty chilled out day, drinking coffee and spending some time with my PS3. I literally spent the whole day playing God of War III and Prototype. It was pretty good.
Movies Cop Out Bruce Willis is a total nut in Cop Out a combination of action and comedy, that should be able to keep you entertained. The story does not take a lot of concentration to follow and is not particularly twisted, so you could probably get bored if you're not
Movies Brothers This is a sad movie about a guy who goes off to war and ends up doing something that changes him forever. His brother and him are total opposites that find each other in a time of struggle. This movie is very sad, yet probably such a real situation, for
Movies The Hurt Locker Motherless! Hurt Locker is one insane movie. It starts off with some action and it has some really heart wrenching scenes too. This movie get's you thinking and makes you wonder how many people are used in terror attacks against their wills. If you are not into gore
