  • An Idea Worth Tabling

    With all the talk of events in London over the past week, I couldn’t help but feel slightly nostalgic for my halcyon days in the UK. Weekends in Europe, snakebites, wild nights at the Met Bar, Pimms, Linen suits, boat races – my, they were good days. Not the weather, mind, but the first world nature of it all.

    And speaking of weather, there are a few dead give-aways that Cape Town is donning her autumnal jacket. The deluge of models at Caprice turns into a trickle, Ed Hardy shirts are harder to spot, the Atlantic seaboard set start planning trips to the Med, and of course, the restaurant specials.

    The absolute dead cert is the spreadsheet which will soon start appearing in your inbox advertising Cape Town’s epic ‘Winter Restaurant Deals’. Well, thanks to the ingenuity of the team at Table Magic I am delighted to report that you will no longer have to rifle through your old mails to find a list of all restaurants specials in Cape Town, and beyond.

    Back to London – this is exactly how I used to operate – online everything. I have been patiently biding my time for a service which allows one to make restaurant bookings, online. From the comfort of your desk, without having to sneak off to make a frustrating call to a receptionist who doesn’t have  ‘the booking sheet’ to hand.  So many, many thanks for Table Magic for stepping up to the plate.

    As the Table Magic website suggests, “Cape Town’s first restaurant search, review and instant booking site. No need to make a phone call, no need to wait patiently for a restaurant to get back and confirm your booking, with just one tap of a mouse button you can have a confirmed booking at your chosen restaurant. And the most amazing part, the service is completely free!”

    So not only can you see a host of restaurant specials in Cape Town, you can also book online, review the restaurants online and earn rewards for the reviews. Genius.

    It’s no biological mystery that us humans require more of a push in order to risk new experiences in the colder months. I’m sure Table Magic will expand my repertoire of restaurants visited during the Winter.

    Now, all we need is for Kate Middleton’s sister to move to Cape Town and I’ll be happy.
