SUN, SEA & CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
KOMMETJIE |
|
Even though it’s the end of September, it will in all
eventualities be cold and wet (ie if
previous years are an indication.
I am always on the lookout for new and
interesting people – one such lady is
Belinda Nel
the truffle lady who lives in Kommetjie
(a place Time Out has not explored in
detail!)
Belinda is an extremely positive person
– she had to be when life threw her
curved balls! She was retrenched and
also lost a breast to cancer. Yet being
a single mom she didn’t let this get her
down! “As a salesperson a motor car was
included in my employment package, so
that went too.” Bee’s Handmade Chocolate
Truffles was born through her
ingenuity. She makes several varieties
– Caramel/Chocolate/etc.
“When Life
hands you trouble, make truffles”
is her favourite saying!
She will be doing a short demonstration
for us at a friend’s bistro in Kommetjie
– Espresso.kom where after she has
finished we will enjoy a light lunch.
There will be enough time to explore the
quaint businesses in the Kommetjie area
– Imhoff Farm / The Compass Bakery (they
give pensioners 10% off on a Thursday)
etc will keep us busy for an hour or two
doing some ‘gathering’. |

If the weather is good we will
take the coach down to the
Kommetjie beach and take a
stroll along OR you can just sit
on a bench and gaze at the sea
if walking does not appeal. We
will stop in at Imhoff Farm for
a brief look-around! Initially
I said lunch would be in
Kommetjie - but they were
unwilling to negotiate!
WE WILL BE HAVING LUNCH AT CAFÉ
ROUX IN THE NOORDHOEK VILLAGE (I
will be inviting Mary Honeybun
to join us).
I am always aware of the high
cost of meals, so this month
you have two options:
1.
If you feel you would like
just a MAIN course
the outing
cost will be R290.00.
2. If you feel you would like
STARTER & MAIN
course the
cost will be R320.00
Your payment to me will indicate
which way you wish to go.
