One Park is one of our fav listening bars in South Africa. It's a place where you never quite know what you'll get. A wine bar with Afro-Asian small plates, cocktails and a vinyl DJ? A new tattoo at one of their frequent pop-up events? Or maybe a boogie on a Friday night? But what you can always count on is an intimate, romantic space with amazing vibes. 

For gorgeous handmade floral arrangements, we suggest having a look at Opus' stunning pieces. True masters of their craft!

When we're in town, we love to start our day at Our Local. Preferably with Eggs Florentine, a Mimosa and a good book. Maybe stay for lunch with a friend, so a Caesar Salad and another drink (this time it's probably a Cosmo). Coffee and cake in the afternoon, then dinner with the family. And did we mention it's also a plant shop? What can we say, we LOVE this neighbourhood gem.
