Mrs. Ross was a good excuse to visit new places, such as new or used bookstores, and restaurants. The restaurants were the kind that we wouldn't have frequented otherwise, due to their ambiance and elegance. Not to mention something so tawdry as prices.
Take a gander at this dessert--chocolate mousse.
Dining at Casa Labia, a landmark "recently restored to its former glory" on Main Rd. in Muizenberg/ St. James, it is indeed elegant. We chose simple foods, such as quiche, which were delicious.
Upstairs in the Cultural Centre, where African works of art are displayed, presumably for sale.
Looking out the window toward the Pavilion on the beach. The Pavilion is where the New Year's Day outreach was centered.
The gardens beside Casa Labia. Very beautiful, picturesque setting.
On Mrs. Ross' wall--I admired a handcrafted Bible verse with seashells adorning it. Purple is Mrs. Ross' color, and she even had purple orchids. She is a delightful person to know. She used to be a Young.
Man, Joy. You're may be getting too fancy for this girl...was the chocolate mousse tasty? I'll ask Josiah if he saw the photo...maybe we can copy it (buy some mint, sprinkle some cocoa powder on the corners of our bowls, etc). :)
ReplyDeleteThat was such a pretty view of the oceanside.
Hey, being a Young and all, is Mrs. Ross related to you?
