I ate dinner at Chilli Pepper, a restaurant on Immink Drive in Diepkloof, Soweto. It was a memorable experience.

Lots of people have been asking for suggestions on where to eat outside in Joburg. Blind Tiger in Parkview has the perfect restaurant garden.

Since the pandemic began, I've become obsessed with the taste of sourdough bread. My loaf from Meat the Mother increased that obsession.

We went for a Valentine's dinner at the Fireplace Roadhouse in Boksburg and it couldn't have been any more perfect.

Toasted is a coffee shop/toasted sandwich cafe, hidden in the courtyard of an office building on Jan Smuts Avenue in Parkwood.

I'm fascinated by South African roadhouses, the equivalent of U.S. drive-ins. My first roadhouse blog feature is the Lollipop in Pretoria.

I had lunch at Anong Thai in Cyrildene and it was the best Thai meal I've had since I moved to Johannesburg.

Last week I spent two days at Walkersons, a lodge just outside Dullstroom. I was dazzled by how bright green and blue everything looked.

I went to Peter's Food Centre in Brixton to sample their selection of dagwoods. The corner shop experience didn't disappoint.

Last week Gail and I spent a day driving around Lenasia with Faarooq, our charming friend who lived there as a young man.

I attended the new "Organic Vegan Experience" tour with Honest Travel last weekend. I now see urban gardens in a new light.

Yummy Mayfair, a shop selling local and imported prepared foods, has the best selection of American junk food I've seen in Joburg.
