Cool creatives and excellent eateries Here at Bizcommunity, we love discovering and supporting local talent, and this week's Lifestyle newsletter is all about giving recognition to some cool creatives. I interview South Africa Fashion Week's director Lucilla Booyzen about the upcoming Sunglass Hut New Talent Search, which sees eight upcoming fashion designers showcasing their designs on the SAFW runways. While Lauren Hartzenberg chats to Nick Dutton, co-founder of the uber cool local surf brand, Mami Wata Surf. Following the theme of supporting local talent, the winners of the Western Cape leg of the 2017 Eat Out Mercedes-Benz Best Everyday Eateries awards were recently revealed. Click through to find out where to get the best Cape Town burgers, coffee and more. This week we bring a bunch of new competitions - tickets to Park Acoustics, the Led Zepplin Tribute Show and MCQP presents Halloween are all up for grabs.
