Fazielah’s Top 3 Weekday Picks for September 10 to 13, 2012
Fazielah Williams
Fazielah Williams has lived in and loved her Mother City since birth. Having lived all over the Peninsula during her childhood, she now calls the picturesque City Bowl home and likes nothing more than watching the sun set over Table Bay from the window of her apartment.
A lover of the arts and proud Cape Town fanatic, Fazielah began her writing career by spending many hours as a child conjuring fantastical stories that featured independent heroines from faraway lands who saved the Prince instead. This Capetonian princess has enjoyed stints as a magical arts PRO and TV publicist before finding her calling as a travel writer.
When not waxing lyrical about the Fairest Cape’s most loved attractions and activities and embarking on unexpected adventures, Fazielah can usually be found taking in a show at one of the City’s fabulous theatres.
With free entry into the West Coast National Park during SANParks Week from Monday 10 to Friday 14 September, 2012, you can admire the blooming flowers for free! Photo courtesy of South African National Parks
It’s a brand spanking new week in Cape Town and boy, am I ready to take it on!
Join me at the following events and activities in the Mother City from September 10 to 13, 2012:
SANParks Week 2012
Free entry to the Table Mountain National Park, Bontebok National Park and West Coast National Park all week long? Are you serious?
Yes, nature lovers, it’s true. You can enjoy the splendour of Mother Nature at her supreme best for gratis. Just remember to take along your ID book. While you’re there, why not try some zip-lining across the Buffeljachts Dam in Swellendam, abseiling off Table Mountain or quad biking along the West Coast?

Breakfast Special at Red Sofa Café
Since this delightful and quirky eatery opened in my neighbourhood (that’s the über-gorgeous Vredehoek), I have become somewhat of a slave to its considerable charms.
Their nutella cupcake is my greatest weakness but if you’re in need of a good hearty breakfast, you can’t go wrong with their delicious roll and coffee special for only R30.
Call +27 (0)21 461 7274 for more information.
Bench
As if Kalk Bay Theatre’s chocolate brownies weren’t enough to keep luring me back to its entertaining base, they also continuously deliver top-of-the-line productions such as comedian Brent Palmer’s new show, Bench.
In this fabulous play, Palmer and co-star Adrian Collins star as two petty thieves who ponder the wisdom of carrying out their next big heist whilst parked on a bench, with surprising consequences.
