Food & fashion at the v&a Waterfront

There’s nothing more exciting than wearing your new fashion purchases. Need an excuse to get out – the V&A Waterfront has an abundance of wining and dining experiences for every fashionable occasion.

When in Rome . . . .  meet a few friends for Italian at Meloncino.

Prosciutto con Gelato di Grana Padano e Mascarpone
Hand-sliced prosciutto served with a Grana Padano and Mascarpone ice cream, drizzled with balsamic. (I could have this again! )

I’d wear this nautical combination of Woolworths Wedges, Trenery Striped Dress and Woolworths Sling Bag …. or ….. These Raybans from Sunglass Hut, one of these Oh-so-girly dresses from I love Leroy (how cute?), this red trench from Mango and to finish it off these cute red peeptoes and satchel bag from Forever New.

The Table Bay Hotel is hosting a Wine Tasting and Food Pairing Evening on the 30th July. (Read more here) A fabulous experience I can highly recommend. A mix of old world charm and modern attention to detail. Glass of wine? Why not browse their new Ipad Wine Menus.

“With current social media technology, taking up more of the hours of our day, tending to move information around more than ever, we now can have information at our fingertips, anywhere we find ourselves. What a super way to run our social lives. SAWi efforts are aimed at providing the wine consumer with information that is rich and much more meaningful, as SAWi foresees an entirely different experience for wine consumers in future.

The SAWi iPad application, designed as a unique approach to display and pair food and wine, is a touch screen unit, presented to guests displaying the menu of the day and recommending wines according to the choice of food dish. The wine content, drawn from the SAWi database, is rich and includes data which is informative, innovative and new, being in line with the SAWi philosophy of engaging, informing and educating users of wine in a new way.” Says The Table Bay Hotel

I can’t wait to try that out!

I’d wear this tailored dress and blazer from Mango – perhaps even belted with either these incredible TRENERY Boots and matching bag, or these Wedges from Country Road. Ooh they’re on my summer “want list”

Celebrating something special, romantic dinner for two? You have to experience the world renowned Japanese Cuisine at Nobu at least once in your life time.

They are running a special five-course set menu this winter for only R299 until 31 August. The five-course set menu will be a mouthwatering reflection of Nobu cuisine from start to finish. Including the likes of new style sashimi, the restaurant’s famous rock shrimp, beef toban and of course a sushi roll of the day. For dessert there are three choices and devotees will be thrilled to know that Nobu Cape Town’s signature chocolate bento box is one of these.  It’s a MUST! Very special!

I’d wear my favourite Lee Skinny Jeans, This sparky Stefania Morland blouse (You must check out the fab new S.A Designer store) , Swarovski’s from Spilhaus and one-day-I’ll-own-a-pair, Jimmy Choo Heels.

So as you can see – V&A Waterfront offers a little something for every occasion, come fashion, come food! xx

P.s Don’t forget to have your passport stamped to ‘Get Away with the V&A’, to keep you in the loop on all that’s winter especially the BIG winter sale visit winter.waterfront.co.za.

P.s.s Thanks to everyone that sent in their ideas and thoughts on what you’d like to hear from The V&A Waterfront! We’ve noted all your suggestions and hope to cover the information as thoroughly as possible. Congrats to Vanessa Berger – your mail won you the R500 V&A Waterfront Voucher! Happy Shopping! x
