Chic Jozi - Temkin, Nikki

Paperback. English. Penguin. 2009. In good condition. Where do you go for cut-price designer labels, that little black dress with your name on it, or a unique ensemble for an exclusive evening out? Where can you take your children so they'll be entertained and safe while you can relax? And what actually are 44 Stanley, Arts on Main, and Gramadoelas? How do you fool your mother-in-law with a delicious home-made - read: catered - lasagne served in the dish she gave you (because what working girl has time to cook a gourmet meal during the week)? Who should you trust for that French mani or a perfect pedi? Are you looking for somewhere to sip exotic sundowners while the sun sets on the Jozi skyline or the trendiest hangouts for a Saturday night on the town? How about where to find the juiciest cut of steak or the freshest fish in this land-locked city, organic veggies, freshly ground coffee beans, and still-warm, flour-dusted ciabatta? And if it's the most decadent Belgian chocolate cake that you're after to share with your girlfriends or a melt-in-the-mouth cheesecake, you'll find all this and much, much more in Chic Jozi: The Savvy Style Companion. From restaurants, bargain-hunting, landscape gardening and urban chilling, to club-hopping, museums, markets and vintage stores; from spas, the best boutiques, and local designers, to going green with organic products, kids' courses, yoga and meditation: this is your one-stop, utterly essential guide to how to have a good time in Joburg.
