TJ Billies: Here Come the Meat Sweats Noble Savage (he said):  Ah, America! Land of the free. Home of the brave. Sure, they haven’t always shown the best of judgement (think Watergate, Vietnam, and Trump), but one area where they do know what they’re doing, in Barbeque. Now first off, …

Kitchen at the End of the Universe: A Burger

May 28, 2018 Kitchen at the End of the Universe / Recipes

Noble Savage: This will be a quick one…. Everyone should know how make a decent burger. It’s right up there with being able to change a tyre and knowing where to use an apostrophe. And many sources will try to convince you that you need to make your patty as …

May 23, 2018 Restaurant Reviews / Restaurants

Almost Orange Bistro: There’s a deer just outside eating fruit from the orchard! Noble Savage (he said): If you get the above reference, maybe lay off Netflix for a bit… Long weekends are always a good excuse to explore a bit. This year’s Easter Weekend was no different. We were …

Kitchen at the End of the Universe: Bone Marrow Burger

May 16, 2018 Kitchen at the End of the Universe / Recipes

Noble Savage (he said):  Burgers are always a good idea. Together with pizza, it’s almost infinitely customizable. An added bonus is that it’s just a breeze to make. Inspired by a recipe I saw on Yuppiechef’s website, I decided to try out a bone marrow burger. You’ll need: 150g – …

Noble Savage (he said): The National is one of those restaurants that we’ve had on our list for the longest time, but somehow never managed to visit. So we jumped at the chance to visit when, somewhat serendipitously, Vondeling Wines invited us to attend a wine and food pairing, with …

Toni’s Fish & Chip Co: Die Kaap in Pretoria

March 30, 2018 Restaurant Reviews / Restaurants

Noble Savage (he said): I’ve always been a big fan of traditional fried fish & chips. There’s something almost artistic about turning a simple piece of hake into so much more, using just batter and oil, and complimenting it with the humble potato. Everyone has a story about the best …
