(p.s. the bicycle in the picture is hanging on the wall in Bean There. One of the reasons I just love that place.)

Cape Delish ~ Starlings Cafe
Starlings restaurant is one of my top spots to chillax. I once found my digs mate, Candice Reid, there and she had drunk about 4 flat whites… hence her constant shaking and wide eyes
We loved this place.
The setting is an old house that has been transformed into a little piece of magic. Inside you can enjoy the coffee aromas and take in the goodness of the freshly baked goods, while outside is a calm paradise of fountains and greenery, mixed with antique decor and a little book shop.
My recommendation for your first visit would be to indulge in a flat white coffee and a piece of their delicious carrot cake.

Welcome to Coffey and Cake
This has to be my most favourite way to start a day, a good cup of coffee and my keyboard.
In this blog I hope to convey some of the hidden gems that South Africa’s food and drink industry has to offer. As one of my past times is sharing great conversation over cake and a yummy latte, I have decided to share these moment with you too.
My inspiration for this blog came when I moved to Johannesburg and my free spirit lead me to explore the suburbs and hence coming across some incredible coffee shops and cafes. So a year in I have russtled up a few of my favourites and will continue to add as I stumble across, what im sure will be, many more taste sensations.
I would love for anyone to share the names of their favourite coffee shops and I will most certainly make it my mission to get there and most certainly enjoy every moment of trying out a new place.
