Dinner for 6: Celebrity Edition

21 May 2010, Posted by Cape Town Girl in BFFs, CTG, Celebrity, Parties, cape town, characters, food, 1 Comments

So CTG and her wine expert, her foodie and her restaurant critic all got together last night to test out a new dinner vibe we’re wanting to do, namely ‘Dinner for 6′, where we invite unusual guests to come over and eat unusually themed food while wearing unusual items of clothing. Of course last night was the test run so very little was actually unusual, apart from the vast quantities of wine that were consumed… 18 bottles for a dinner party is not exactly a terribly usual number…

Craig makes no sudden movements as Frances Sauvage wields her weapon of choice.

KWV  wines supplied us with their terribly gracious Mentors range, and Fairview indulged us in their latest offering namely the vivaciously packaged La Capra range, and Harry made sure to throw in a few of his own choice pieces, the idea being to pair the wines with the food in some way, while Francess Sauvage dominated the kitchen, tossing out all manner of dishes such as ‘Antonia Gazpacho Banderas’ and ‘Mila Chicken Kiev Jovovich’ (our loose theme for the evening was ‘celebrity’) but I shan’t go into too much detail here as there’ll be more commentary to follow no doubt once all The Experts (food, wine & restaurant) shake off their hangovers long enough to write a few words… in the meantime please appreciate Khan, Frances’s 8-month old teacup size Siamese:

Khan aka 'Smally'

He’s just too much. Thanks to all for a very memorable evening, especially to our sponsors. There’ll be a full account of the evening up here next week.
