Flavour city

Calling all foodies, the ever popular Good Food & Wine Show is just around the corner, with first stop in Cape Town before heading to Joburg and then Durban. Leigh Andrews recently attended the media launch and got the (delicious) scoop on what to expect this year!

In other top story news, local Fashion Revolution representative, Cyril Naiker weighs in with his thoughts on ethical fashion in part three of the Fashionably Conscious debate. I review a romantic stay at the Samara Private Game Reserve and Martin Myers chats to Monark ahead of their new album launch.

Continuing our foodie theme we still have tickets up for grabs to the Good Food & Wine Show in Cape Town and the Capital Craft Beer Festival in Pretoria!
