Corks be poppin'

Pop the corks, let the bubbles flow, we're celebrating great food and wine wins this week. The winners of both the 2016 Eat Out Mercedes-Benz Restaurant Awards and the Diners Club Winemaker of the Year Awards were announced last weekend - congrats to all! In other foodie news, I interview MD Campbell Stevenson and head chef Jenny Ward of fresh, new concept eatery, Chefs.

Jazz lovers take note, the first set of international and local artists have been revealed for the 2017 Cape Town International Jazz Festival.

We have got tickets up for grabs to next week's Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concert featuring Beatenberg and Opposite the Other!
