Some cool new spots to check out on Jobest

December 12, 2014

As you know, Anna-Belle and I have started a new blog called Jobest, which is all about awesome places in and around Johannesburg to go to. The site is going to review all sorts of spots, from restaurants, to hotels, to shops, to resorts to parks, to pools, etc etc

So if you know of any places that you think would be worth our while checking out, even if it’s an underground gold plated volcano (you know how rare those are), then please drop me a mail and let me know about it so that we can get it on Jobest.

The Sheds @1Fox

October 13, 2014

Yesterday myself and Anna-Belle took a quick drive into town to go check out the brand spanking new market that has just opened up called The Sheds @1Fox. Anna-Belle told me about it a while ago and I have been so excited all week to check this space out and I wasn’t disappointed. The actual venue itself is massive and the potential that it holds for future marvellous things is huge. We just happened to literally bump into one of the owners, Jan Roode and he filled us in on what their plans are for this space and it all sounds very exciting, I can’t wait.

For now though, it’s a market set up in an awesome old warehouse with loads of different food stalls that sell all sorts of things from oysters, to waffles, to ribs, to Paul’s Homemade Ice-cream, there are also a couple of bars and lots and lots of tables for you to spread your food loot out, so you can dive in comfortably, like a ravenous shipwreck survivor. There aren’t very many clothing/things stores just yet, but I’m sure that’ll change soon, as the space is so big and ripe for lots of different stalls to fill it.

12 x 30 Project – an Exhibition by Catherine Green

September 24, 2014

My talented friend Catherine Green is exhibiting at Wolves for the next few weeks, her show is starting on Friday at 6pm and she has sent a whole lot of framed and unframed, all original ink drawings from Cape Town for this exhibition.

I did a post a while back on Cath’s work and so I’m so excited to see it up close and personal. There are so many cool pieces and they’re not your run of the mill drawings, the content is out of the ordinary and really interesting and definitely worth a look and a buy.
