An amazing kitchen based on the far end of Hout Bay with a view that can and will take your breath away. This is what a bucket of dirt brulee mix looks like :(. A beautifu...

And this is what I was greeted by, The oh so tiny KIA Picanto 1 l...

Brendan and I also have to maintain the discipline of the local chefs that are altogether.
