What Sup: Trinity Restaurant, Bar and Club

The restaurant offers everything from sushi to pizza. It has a similar atmosphere and menu to Beluga.
On the night we went they had a live jazz band. This venue offers a bar, great food with live entertainment and a club. You are guaranteed to have a great evening.

What Sup: Meat Free Monday-Vegetable Bake

Meat Free Monday doesn't have to be boring! It gives you the opportunity to be creative with texture, colour and the natural flavours of your favourite vegetables.


In the vegetable bake: Baby marrow, cherry tomoatoes and smoked paprika
Sweet potatoes with sunflower seeds and honey
roasted beetroot with garlic and rosemary
Butternut stuffed with spinach and BBQ sauce
Bake all for 1hr at 180 degrees c


What Sup: Roasted butternut soup

This "deconstructed" soup has much more flavour than just boiling vegetables on the stove top for hours. The roasted vegetables (especially the butternut squash) become sweet and caramelise when roasted,that is what makes this the best butternut soup recipe!

First make your stock using grated carrot, celery,onion,tomatoes,leaks and chicken stock powder.

 Once the stock and simmered slowly for 30 min take off heat and strain. Set this aside while the vegetables(butternut, carrots, potatoes) roast in the oven for 45 minutes.


1 chopped butternut, 2 medium potatoes and 3 carrot coated in a olive oil, rosemary,cinnamon and nutmeg.

Add the vegetables to the stock and reheat, use a blender to create a smooth decedent soup. You could add a splash of cream.

What Sup: Fritata with peppers, baby marrow and bacon

You will need:
Red pepper and green pepper finely chopped
1 large baby marrow grated
Spring onion
Fried bacon cut into small bits(about half a cup)
6 Large eggs
Half cup cream/milk for low fat option
Salt and pepper

Whisk eggs and milk (or cream), add all ingredients and pour mixture into a small dish, remember to spray before you cook so it wont stick.

For side salad: avo (mashed with lemon and and pepper), rocket, watercress,cherry tomatoes,yellow pepper and cucumber. One orange to be used for citrus dressing with olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. I also served this whit toasted flat bread.

What Sup: Aubergine Burgers



A vegetarian burger can be just as flavourful with these "Patties".



Whisk the egg and dip the aubergine into this mixture, roll in the bread crumbs and seasoning and fry in olive oil till aubergine cooked and golden brown.

To start off you will need the following ingredients: 1 large aubergine (cut into think slices that will be used as the burger patties), 1 extra large egg, steak seasoning, onion rings, 1 ripe avo, BBQ sauce and bread rolls.

For a really healthy option I found these brown rolls enriched with Omega.

Garnish for burger: fry onion rings in some BBQ sauce and set aside with some mashed avo, lettuce and tomatoes.

Assemble burger and tuck in!

Another idea: Save some of the "patties" and use as a starter with a fresh herb salad.

What Sup: Woman's Day at Wafu

It was a stunning day here in Cape Town so we decided to head out to Seapoint to find a meal with an ocean view. Wafu and Wakame are just the place if you looking for asian food with flair. We ordered the main of mussels in a thai broth and sushi that was fresh and oh so tasty. The service was great this time round(this can be an issue at times).

What Sup: Bombay Bicycle Club

 

YES, That is a bed hanging from the ceiling of a restaurant!

You could honestly spend an hour just looking at all the interesting items used as decor.

This a very interesting little restaurant that has a strange quirky side. The food, as with the restaurants decor has no particualr theme. They offer just about anything on the menu (pasta, curries, fish and steak). If you feel like an unusual experience this is the place to try!

What Sup: Woodlands Eatery in Vredehoek

Great spot in Cape Town for lunch on the weekend: We had the lamb pizza (sounds strange to be used as a topping but it was the best pizza I have ever had!) It was filled with the rich flavour of slow cooked lamb and rosemary, with a mouth watering savoury tomatoe sauce and cream cheese.
The Woodlands Eatery is a cosy, relaxed neighbourhood bistro. On the menu is a selection of comfort food. The wood fired Tuscan lamb pizza is a MUST!
