Voting and then enjoying some of Cape Towns restaurants :)

Your vote is your privacy ,but not according to all the Facebook posts about which party people would be voting for in the last few weeks, which kind of got monotonous and annoying ,but never the  less i was pretty excited to go and vote being it my first time and all . I was in a very fortunate position not to stand in any queues at the voting station as my sister is on crutches and cannot stand on her feet for too long soooo we skipped the whole queue and kindly got helped straight away making the voting a 5 minute max thing. 

My friend/sister Roxy came to sleep by me for the first time in about a year and a half , she has just graduated from completing her cheffing course and is now currently studying hotel management at THC the hurst campus ,i haven't seen her in ages because her campus is situated in Franschoek and we were both busy , i visited her every now and then in Franschoek while she was doing her internship and stayed for a whole week in the December holidays. spending the last two days with her was pretty awesome. :)

having the whole day ahead of us and nothing to do we decided we would go for lunch .. it took us about a half an hour to decide where we would go eat and in what direction we would go ,my sister throwing around suggestions of camps bay , hout bay and many other far places which was cool except for the fact i would have to be the one to drive there and back. We decided to go Cape Towns direction and ended up in park street ,this little street had many restaurants to choose from such as simply Asia ,takumi,fat cactus ,we decided to have lunch at a Moroccan restaurant called Ricks cafe 

Ricks Cafe had the largest amount of alcohol I've ever seen at any restaurant thismeaning about 5 pages filled with different options and two pages in total sums up all the food items present on their menu. I have not consumed alcohol in a while so i ordered a passionfruit and pineapple mojito and shortly after that i ordered a lemonade to chase it as it was to strong and felt like my tummy was being burnt to its core. Ricks Cafes food was amazing and the portion size was unbelievably huge,but well worth it. 

Next stop..... Fire and Ice Cape town  no no not for food but for awesome milkshakes ,if you have not been i suggest you go :D They have awesome flavours and a really large selection at that too. the Fire and Ice hotel has awesome bathrooms with different themes and very modern furniture and finishes to enjoy. 

All in all i have had an awesome public holiday by voting and enjoying two of Cape Towns amazing restaurants, unplanned road trips like these and good company is something I quite enjoy,
