Unpopular opinion loading π
Today we introduce you to our thoughts on the @thebutcherswifesa .
A popular spot for a lot of Capetonians and one of our favourite spots in Athlone for pasta, pizza and milkshakes that are absolutely yummmm.
Letβs start with the pizzas. What we love about all of their pizza options is that they are perfectly made with a crunchy base and ingredients that are balanced just the right way.
Our favourite pizza option is their Chicken Tikka which melts into your mouth the minute you crunch the first bite. Another favourite of ours is the Chicken Kebab gourmet pizza.
Their pasta options also stood out to us. The classic meatball pizza and spaghetti bolognese are hands-down the best; simple and tasty.
The portion size is a bit smaller but not a deal breaker. For our next visit, we are definitely going to try another pasta option.
For drinks, we have had their oreo and bubblegum milkshake and fresh juices.
All of them have refreshed us and we canβt wait to try more.
While we donβt generally have desserts there, their churros with chocolate option is warm and perfect for the winter.

If you had asked us what we think about go karting until December 2023, we would have replied by saying βloud and not that much funβ.
That was the experience we had - mainly indoor go karting - which we didn't enjoy too much.
But theeeeeeen we tried the outdoor option with the Xtreme Outdoor Karting folks and our opinion changed entirely.
Their track is outdoors so you enjoy the beautiful nature and sun beaming while driving.
It is also wider and spacier giving you good space to pick up speed*(with safety of course), manoeuvre and enjoy a good game with other riders in your team.
The noise of the go kart engines also doesn't sit with you as you are riding since it's outdoors.
The booking process is simple and can be made via WhatsApp.
Booking is essential and we definitely recommend it as the drive is far and you donβt want to be disappointed (that is what happened with us the first timeπ).
During summer and the festive period, they were open every day, but currently they are exclusively open during the weekend.
They can also cater to you from Wednesday to Friday, provided you have a 2-hour minimum booking.
Packages vary depending on whether you are booking as a group or as an individual. We recommend the 8-min individual option if you are trying it for the first time.

Experience the Cape Town sunset in luxury with Mirage Catamaran π₯οΈ
If you want to breathe in the beauty of Cape Town mountains and skyline all at once (and you should!) while seeing the whole city from the Ocean, the cruises offered by Mirage Catamaran are a luxury experience you wonβt want to miss.
Upon entering, you will be offered a complimentary drink; non alcoholic options are available too.
You can either sit at the top of the boat, inside at the lower part or outside on the amazing mesh witnessing the boat break through the ocean to create those therapeutic waves.
We started off upstairs and then saw ourselves just laying on the mesh while the air breathed in new life into us π
Lasting a total of 90 mins, they have options to sail during the day or to experience the sunset.
Sunset options are, of course, more expensive at R560 pp**.
The morning, midday and afternoon sales are cheaper at R340. However, we definitely recommend the former where you will experience the sky transition into darkness.
**Prices are dependant on season and if you use a discount
Some useful tips:
π’ Cruises sail daily from the V&A Waterfront; weather permitting.
π We have noted their prices surge during the summer due to higher demand so winter sailing is cheaper. Onedayonly also sell vouchers for cruises occasionally.
π§₯ A jacket is a must have for this sails regardless of the weather as it can get quite chilly out in the ocean.
Have you experienced this?

Our favourite part of visiting an Asian restaurant is the starters!!
We loveeeee them. In fact, we often get so carried away that we can skip the main meal and just fill up on the starters π
Is anyone else like that too?
But that's why we love @nurisushifactory .
They get their sushi perfectly right and our favourite option is the fried California rolls; we just canβt go back.
Whether you try the tuna, prawn or the salmon, you will not regret it.
We often order online with Nuri but also enjoyed their in-store experience at Parliament Street in Cape Town.
With other food options there as well, you can combine your starters with some mains and desserts to get the perfect combo.
But if you are lazy, they are available on all online delivery options (like @_mrd_za and @ubereats_za) and have some good deals if you keep a lookout π
What are you waiting for? Order some warm sushi to get you through the winter brrrssssss π₯Ά

Sand here, sand there, sand everywhere π
The Atlantis Dunes are the closest thing to a desert in Cape Town. Plus, they're the adrenaline junkieβs dream with lots of fun options available to explore this beautiful spot.
We chose to explore the scenic views of the dunes with quad bikes from the @wildxadv Team.
The ride starts with a quick demo on how to ride the bikes; the bikes have a very small learning curve so you will be going in no time.
If you are booked at the same time slot as other guests, the guides will gather you and then lead you through the dunes.
Having said that, there is not a lot of βguidingβ per se as the tour mostly includes a ride across the dunes with a WildX staff member leading the group.
There are also many limitations with speed, due to safety reasons of course, but that can dampen the experience slightly.
What we loved though was our guideβs willingness to stop along the way and snap pictures of groups with their creative poses.
The normal rate for the quad bikes is R1000 pp but there are plenty of cost-saving options that can go all the way to 50%. We booked our trip at R500 pp and had to call their team to schedule a visit.
