Cape Town South Africa

Cubana is quite the hotspot in Table View at the moment. Being a Cuban type franchise throughout South Africa you always know what to expect. They have good food and a dance floor for the more energetic folk to enjoy. They have a balkony as well where you can strut your stuff as well as lounge type tables which you can book. Parties like the Beach Party and other great promotional events make it a great hangout with friends or for sundowners. For bookings, call 021 557 7320.

Had some dinner at Tank the other night and I must say their sushi is divine. This Cape Town restaurant has a nice bar and big restaurant area, which still gets busy even on off nights during the week. They also have an outside section in the busy courtyard of the Cape Quarter development. It’s close to night clubs like Opium and Pulse so you’re in for a buzzling night out. The atmosphere is quite clinical, almost cold, but I guess that’s attributed to the fish tank feel. There’s a large fish tank with exotic fish in the middle of the restaurant. Check out their website on The-Tank.co.za.

‘Antique’ Restaurant is situated accross from Hemisphere club in the ABSA building in Cape Town, on the 31st floor (might be 32nd). It’s obviously got all the view that Hemisphere has and also a nice cosy bar with dramatic styling, giving it an antique feel, yet modern and sophisticated on the seated restaurant side. The food tastes and looks great. The starters (those sharing dishes) were just a bit pricey for what we got, but all in all a nice evening out. Be sure to make your bookings well in advance though and don’t even think about not wearing a collared shirt and sneakers…
