Restaurants in the lanes, Brighton
The lanes are a wonderful set of pedestrian roads and alleys filled with little restaurants and shops. It is a complete maze, and very easy to get completely disorientated and lost in them.
However getting lost is part of the experience, you will simply another interesting little shop.
The shops used to be the fishermen’s cottages, and they still retain a lot of their character.
There is also daily ghost walk, where you learn about the murders, lovers, ghosts and haunting in and around the lanes. It is a little cheese, but for 5 pounds it is a fun 90 minutes.
Sidewalk tables in a typical restaurant in the lanes. Looks a little like Paris to me.

Kick Arse coffee – it must be. It says so.
Buena Vista Social Cafe
Buena Vista Social Cafe, originally uploaded by Craig is shooting.
Go to the Buena Vista Social Cafe for a Cuban vibe, a Mexican influence,and some great Argentinian tango music.
An interesting spot to visit. The food is pretty good, a mixture of tapas and Mexican food (I don’t think it was authentic to the venue, but it was still good). Were were there for a friend’s birthday party, and it is a good place to goto for that.
A lot of people dressed up for the occasion, here is Alan, the French/Cuban freedom fighter :-)
You can’t go wrong with a frozen Margarita
Or a Dom Petro if you have a sweet tooth
Day 76: Kalk Bay Platter
One of my favourite meals, the Kalk Bay platter from the Cape Town Fish
Market, a great restaurant. The platter contained, fish, calamari, prawns
and mussels. A large meal, but it is so good. They also do great sushi. By
the way if you are vegetarian, I would not rush there too fast…Here is
