The best cafe culture south of Paris

What you'll do

If you thought South Africa had it all, then you would be absolutely right. As well as ticking all the top safari and beach boxes, it’s also something of a gastro-getaway. Enter Cape Town and the Winelands, the country’s (actually, make that continent’s) food and wine nirvana. With cooler-than-a-cucumber restaurants around every corner and the best cafe culture south of Paris, Cape Town should be the first stop on every foodies’ list. Follow that with the award-winning restaurants of the Cape Winelands (and several glasses of Pinotage) and all your culinary dreams really will come true.
