#greenwithenvy I love that shiraz! RT @rambowine: This bottle of shiraz is about meet its maker. Yes it is. @hautespoir syrah. Hmm good. #

Interesting article on how plastic recycling is just a big con so that rich people can get richer while the earth dies http://t.co/CZeXteT #

4 places left RT @MidaKirova: Finally get to taste the Cheviot Syrah tonight. Made in a garage. 6pm at &Union. 5 places left. @andUnionwine #

Just tasted Cheviot garagiste wines at &Union, stunning. Now what's with these kebabs I see people eating? Is this a new menu item? #

Dinner at Meloncino in the Waterfront. Definitely one of the better options for Italian food in Cape Town. The seafood soup was amazing. #

How Iceland is recovering from the financial crisis. It involves telling the IMF to get stuffed. A feel good article http://t.co/izgaGeH #

What you doing tomorrow night? Here's what you should be doing: the craft beer & pizza evening at Massimo's http://t.co/Sgf4rVz #

Looks like I'm having dinner at Hussar Grill in Camps Bay tonight. I can't remember what my kitchen looks like! #

Ordered the chateaubriand, when the table next door saw the flames 2 of them changed their order to the same. Pyromaniacs! #hussar #

But I must say, these complimentary calamata olives with rosemary and garlic are awesome. Tomato soup starter wasn't bad either #hussar #

Steve Jobs resigns as CEO of Apple http://t.co/6olxOKd #

I had dinner at Meloncino in the Waterfront recently. Here is my updated review http://t.co/Pu93EhF #

I wonder if Woolworths actually tell their cashiers to say "can I give you a bag" when they should say "can I SELL you a bag". #

I see Groupon has decided for the 3rd time that I should be on their mailing list. I guess I should be flattered, but I'm actually annoyed. #

The guys from Honest Chocolate open their shop today. 66 Wale Street http://t.co/nDEPOHN #

Toffie Food Festival happens next weekend. The conference is quite expensive, but the exhibition & market is only R50 http://t.co/YbwIAac #

Hey, why didn't anybody tell me about this blog that totally rips into me? The language is foul, but it's quite funny http://t.co/2GNfZoQ #

Airport taxes go up in a big way from 1st October, so if you're flying anywhere later in the year, try buy your tickets before then. #

Don't forget about the McGregor Food & Wine Festival happening this Saturday http://t.co/T1GH7A1 #

If any of you are keen to attend the Toffie Food Festival I mentioned earlier, City Mob is offering R600 off tickets http://t.co/xpxpata #

I've been invited to Sense of Taste, where I did a cooking course, for a little reunion tonight http://t.co/AhXcvXB #

Flip, check out the combos on the gourmet pizzas at Sense of taste. Favourite: oregano & chilli lamb http://t.co/JDRps9O #

I've just realised the Franschhoek Uncorked Festival clashes with the Toffie Food Festival next weekend. Damn http://t.co/aIHJsMp #

You may want to know that the Appeltisers & Grapetisers in the new plastic bottles are not preservative free. #

If you've bought a group buying voucher & it expired, check with the site about a refund. Guys like Groupon & Youdeal will give you a credit #

This is a great idea for keeping emails short so we can actually get some work done. We should all sign up http://t.co/j2P7nen #

Now this is quality cutlery. The glassware is top as well. Menu in there for you too #planet http://t.co/ZazRm4c #

The Computicket website sucks, but their mobi site is such a mission that I think I will just give the concert a skip. #

Hope street market buzzing nicely. My tip: the coriander & chilli sauce from the ladies selling samoosas. This stuff is going on everything! #

And this is a good samoosa. Lots of (tasty) filling & thin pastry #hopestreetmarket http://t.co/2tNYGXz #

Stopped at Jason's Bakery for a porchetta on ciabatta for lunch. Look at this thing. So damn tasty! http://t.co/9lTyfRb #

Awesome, that latest issue of Stuff Magazine has arrived in my postbox. It's the Android issue with reviews on the latest tablets too. #

Just watched the first few episodes of Modern Family. It's funny but I'm all cringed out! #

Just arrived at Oep ve Koep in Paternoster for the Slow Food event. About to go foraging for our lunch! #

Very interesting foraging trip. Look how interesting this plant is. We're going to eat it #slowfood http://t.co/c5mJ7YL #

Pickled onion & wild sage tea. That's our palate cleanser! #slowfood #oepvekoep #

I cooked 2 meals this weekend just so I could eat the chilli & coriander sauce I bought from the Hope St market. I wasn't even hungry. #
