Another report from Cape Town. I was having camera battery issues so my fiance Joe and I decided to bypass the trip to Table Mountain and head to waterfront in search of a camera battery and or new charger. As it turns out my battery had lived as long a life as it could muster. We were at the shopping mall at the V&A Waterfront. Then, we relaxed at the hotel. The Radisson SAS is very nice and we have rooms right off of the pool with a view of the ocean. As Ngaire says they are very spacious. They also have the Molton Brown toiletries the same as Birkenhead house.
We decied for dinner to visit the Cape Grace hotel's restaurant One Waterfront. It was delicious and the service superb. Exactly what you would expect from a 5-star hotel. Joe had the Waterford Cabernet and I had the Jordan Chardonnay at the suggest of the sommelier. Joe ordered the beef filet with a starter of mushroom soup and I ordered the lobster. The entire meal was less than $100 US with tip. This is the time to take advantage of strong dollar to the Rand. Lovely meal and outstanding service. We were very pleased.
