Mother City Living is about living the good life in Cape Town, the Mother City.

By ‘good life’, I don’t mean a high-flying money-is-no-object kind of life, I mean a life that includes good food, beautiful places and excursions to the great outdoors, all within the realms of an ordinary person’s budget.

I am a big fan of natural things, of organic foods, original crafts, restaurants that are not chains, small shops and cafes.

I’m for ’slow food’, not fast food.

Mother City Living will bring news of the places I’ve visited. Places that take great care in the preparation of food, of the service they provide.

I’ll visit organic markets and find websites that offer organic goods and I’ll tell you about them. And I will head off to the spring flowers, or up the mountain, or to the beach, and tell you about that too.

This is the good life, and I’m living it!

Pia.
