latest movies


Greetings movie lovers.

It’s raining and cold in the Mother City meaning that it’s a good idea to snuggle up and watch a good movie, or if you have the money, cruise to your local cinema and catch one of the latest flicks.
With Iron Man 2 still kicking some serious bum at the box office it is still up there as one of the top choices to go see. Although I’m sure many of you would rather watch something other than a metal man flying around knocking the hell out of bad guys (who are you people hehehe). So here are the latest movies that will hit Nu Metro this week.

First up we have the impressively animated movie called 9. This one looks to be a great bit of fun for the whole family…well Tim Burton style family fun. Indeed it does have a rather darker edge to it, but I’m sure the older kids and adults will really dig this one. I have seen a few clips online and it looks to be a really beautiful “oogle-fest”. As for the story itself it sees a small constructed humanoid called 9, who wakes up in a wasteland with nobody around.

Good Food & Wine Show

Food & Wine show


Hi there friends.

If you love food as much as I do then you will no doubt have heard all about the Good Food & Wine Show…or the Gordon Ramsay Food Thingie, as many people have been calling it.
Boys and girls this show is going to be the culinary experience of the year and will not only be gracing the Mother City, but will also be pulling in to Durban and of course Jozies.
I really want to get across to the Cape Town International Conference Centre and check out what is on offer and if I’m really lucky maybe even check out a few of the live cooking exhibitions…that would be tasty indeed!

The Good Food & Wine Show will have an absolute sensory overload of exciting events to sink your teeth into. There will be a whole host of highly respected International celebrity chefs that will blow you away with their charisma and cooking skills. Of course as I hinted above the main attraction is none other than that b@st@&d “Hell’s Kitchen” chef, who we love to hate, Gordon Ramsay.
Yes indeed this hardcore chef will have us all on the edge of our seats while he whips up mouth watering morsels fit for a king.

Other well respected chefs that will be wowing the crowds in Cape Town will be Eric Lanlard who is a master pastry chef and also Giorgio Locatelli who is a supremely gifted Italian chef from the UK.
Here is a list of the chefs on the main site which if you give a click will also give you some background on their cooking disciplines and personal history.
