Top Braai Spots for Reconciliation Day

If there is one thing Capetonians are good at – other than socialising, of course – it’s braaing.

My Top Five Picnic Spots in Cape Town

Even the word picnic is loaded with nostalgia; for me it holds memories of homemade frikkadels, chicken drumsticks and large cold drinks enjoyed with friends and family in special places.

Host and MC Alan Committie even commented at one point in the evening on what a ridiculously good-looking audience it was.
