//231/ Cape Town: Little Ethiopia

Little Ethiopia, 76 Shortmarket Street, Cape Town

//It positively hurts me to share a secret as good as this, but I promised Yeshi I would put up these photos, so here ya go.

//Little Ethiopia really seems like just a little hole in the wall- it can´t be much bigger than 20 square meters- but it opens its doors to an ambiance that belies its appearance. Appart from the friendly and comfortable atmosphere, which its small size only adds to, the food is delicious, authentic and (for those that care) healthy. You are given no cutlery, which kind of forces you to eat using the injera (that pancake-like bread) to scoop up your food...be sure to wash your hands in the little sink beforehand! 

//If your looking for an authentic, memorable African meal in Cape Town, be sure to pop in, or don´t...I have a feeling the place will soon be so popular that they will have to expand...

//146/ Cape Town: The Power and the Glory

The Power and the Glory, Cnr Kloof Nek and Burnside Rd, Cape Town


//The Power and the Glory is a quaint Café that is conveniently situated just down the road from me. It serves delicious coffee and chocolate croissants (which in my experience is very rare in Cape Town!) and is the perfect place to take a few drinks in the evening. Also, very importantly, you cannot got there without trying their scrumptious hot dogs!

 //In these photos I visited the Power and the Glory with my genetically privileged friend Maddalena whom you know from here, here and here. Beautiful, stylish, quirky...have you fallen in love yet? ;)

//138/ Cape Town: Dear Me

Dear Me, Longmarket Street, Cape Town


//Dear Me is a lovely brasserie with delicious food, great decor and plants hanging from the roof (!): pretty much the perfect place to take lunch. Here are some photos...I did however forget to photograph the food, which is decidedly the best part! The prices are on the upper half of average but the food is fresh and the dishes are original so it is very much worth it....
