Drink Of The Month: Jagermeister
From the shape and packaging of the bottle and the colour of the liquid within, at first glance one might believe that Jägermeister is actually a very expensive medicine. The thick-glassed curved bottle with its slightly alarming orange and black stag logo suggests that it may contain an assortment of pills powerful enough to cure [...]
Barrels Bar- A Favorite Place
For the past year visiting Barrels Bar has been a fairly integral part of my weekly routine. Friday night is reserved for a drink and a meal (and perhaps another few drinks) in this cosy establishment and many an hour has been spent sipping a Windhoek, listening to live music, reading the eccentric quotes and [...]
Drink Of The Month- White Russians
A White Russians is a drink heavily advertised by the 1998th blockbuster: “The Big Lebowski”, in which Jeff Bridges takes on the roll as super relaxed hippie Jeffrey Lebowski, who gets involved in the mob-scene due to a case of mistaken identity.
It is this character, Jeffrey Lebowski, who best defines a white Russian: it’s relaxing. [...]
Rumours Of Something Tasty
Situated just off Bismark Street and attached to the ever popular Kapps Hotel, Rumours Grill is a little wooden shrine to good meat. The restaurant is made up of individual booths, separated by partitions and constructed almost entirely from stained wood, giving the whole room the feel of a 1950’s American diner crossed with a [...]
Bellies Full At Bogenfels
Named after the great stone archway hidden in the depths of the Sperrgebiet territory, Bogenfels Restaurant is one of Luderitz’s lesser known gems. Located along the road heading out of town, the restaurant boasts a friendly ambience and simple, classic decor. Each of the meticulously laid tables is separated by partitions of deep red wall, [...]
GORDON’S DRY GIN
By Anne Stokvis
In the 17th century King Willem III of Orange brought the Dutch Genever (a gin made with different herbs) to England. At the same time the English Government imposed a heavy duty on all imported spirits but still allowed Gin to be produced. This created a market for poor-quality grain which was not [...]
BAY VIEW REVIEW
The word on everybody’s lips this April has been crayfish so it is only fitting that we sampled a little bit of this scarlet seafood, and where better to munch some lunch than at the ocean-themed Bay View Hotel. Located on Bismark St the Bay View Hotel is a single story building painted with the [...]
Served At Sea Breeze
As with to Ritzi’s Restaurant one of the most stunning things about the Sea Breeze Café is its location; looking out over the waterfront and harbour the glass fronted café provides a beautiful view of blue seas, blue skies and a distant horizon of golden sand dunes making it a nice place to spend a [...]
Drink Of The Month- Jameson Irish Whiskey
Jameson triple distilled whiskey is a middle-range Irish whiskey. The whiskey is best described as smooth with the slight sweet taste of the oak casks in which it was matured. Though not compatible with top-range whiskey this whiskey has secured a good spot in the upper mid-range and leaves a number of equally priced whiskeys [...]
Drink Of The Month: Love Potion and Hot Sex
The Love Potion
February is famed as the month of love and as a tribute to this we decided to test out the most romantic tipple we could find; Love Potion comes in a tall slim bottle and markets itself as ‘the new age drink that dares to be risqué’. A topless man adorns the [...]
