cape town catch


something about being on the coast makes it difficult for me to eat anything other than seafood. living in landlocked atlanta most of my life if there is actual fresh seafood to be had, i'm going to have it. we enjoyed a lot of wonderfully fresh seafood this weekend in cape town. we chowed down on lovely local fish (the above photo being some of the best fish and chips we've ever had), prawns, mussels, calamari and even had some pretty decent sushi, which is something we haven't had since we left the states.

i did veer off track sunday afternoon and had some beef goulash soup. it was rainy and chilly and they didn't have clam chowder. the soup was incredible thanks to the delicious chunks of ridiculously tender beef.

we've found that south africans don't mess around when it comes to their meats and since captonians really know their seafood it turned out to be a pretty tasty weekend.
