Today’s little slice
of “happitude” is...
An incredible wine
tasting
at Simonsig and Uitkyk wine farms, a yummy
lunch and drinks at the Thirsty Scarecrow and deep-fried Oreos and ice-cream
for dessert... A good
food
day indeed!
The great thing about visiting Stellenbosch is
that there are tons of incredible wine farms to visit there. If ever you have
the opportunity, be sure to visit Simonsig and Uitkyk wine farms. Delicious
wines, reasonably priced wine tastings and the most beautiful scenery make for
an unforgettable experience. If possible, hire a taxi to drive you around if
you’re planning to do a few wine tastings in one day... I don’t know what it is
about those tiny taste-testers but they sure do get you boozed. It is rather
fabulous (giggles).
After two fabulous wine tastings, the four of us
drove out to The Thirsty Scarecrow for lunch. Delicious pizza, (a few) more
Kopparberg ciders and yummy deep friend Oreos and ice cream were on the menu.
One word of warning about the Thirsty Scarecrow:
if you don’t manage to finish your pizza and you request a take-away box, just
know that the sneaky buggers will more than likely knick a few pieces of your
leftovers!
On the upside, this lovely little establishment
is conveniently situated next to a farm stall of sorts which sells great
quality wines at a fraction of the cost. So, after lunch we stocked up on some
more wine for the week and headed home for a much needed nap!
Day 3 in Stellies was a winning good food day
indeed!
