Golf....and foodies
So....been playing quite a few rounds of golf....first round with my new clubs was in Dainfern.....what a nice course...well looked after...and i have never played it before so was great...nice to play new courses....i had some of my new clubs and some of my old clubs...intersting...but new ones seem like they work...now some practice with them....played in Randpark Ridge, Bushwillow....had an ok round....nice individual shots...but somehow the end game didnt reflect that.....and also played twice in Bryanston....so been good....and im definitely getting there...the one round in Bryanston i wanted to give up...had amazing drives and amazing second or third shots and then dont even ask what happened after that...putting just didnt do it....that day...and normally....im quite good....well second nine my putting was good...shots were good and i was a happy camper with my new clubs....new hat and a new marker....in all the rounds i managed to get one birdie...man i was so happy....kim also one....so he was also excited....so here some pics....first one is Dainfern...then me about to get a birdie and then Kim about to get a birdie....
Other than golf there are two places that i would like to mention with regards to going out for some coffee...food.....the first one is a place called Whippet in Linden.....cnr 7th and 4th.....here is a pic of the entrance
So we ordered a quiche and salad and a moccachino and a cappuchino......of course i asked for lots of foam and little milk...and they got it spot on....frustrating was though that when they finished preparing the coffee i saw it stand on the counter for quite some time before being served....so hence it was luke warm....pity....when we asked what the quiche of the day was the waitress had to think and was not sure...that was also a little dissappointing...in my opinion the waitress should have known......hmmmmm.....quiche and salad was good though and the price was also good.....whether i would drive all that way again....honestly i am not quite convinced....here another pic of the inside...
Then....went to Licorish again....and again...exellento....kim had the seared tuna for starters and i had the salmon carpaccio.....both wow....of course we had bubbly....bottle of the rose Krone....also very good....then for mains i had the salmon on a coconut samoosa and passion fruit hollondaise...not so sure about the passion fruit hollondaise to be honest...salmon and samoosa great.....kim had the fillet tasting plate and his favourite was the one with red wine sauce on some mash (there was one with a hollondaise and one with a pepper sauce)..dessert....yes....we had the strawberry crumble with the liquorish ice cream....and kim enjoyed it....next time we said we gonna try the gorgonzola cheesecake....there is just still so many menu items i wanna try....def def going back there...what a great evening....here of course some pics....kims starter...and both our mains
Ok....saturday im off to thailand....so next blog from there...cheers....
