What are you crushing on at the moment? My new Canon 6D. Having a DSLR with wifi, which allows me to upload my dslr images directly to my phone and then to instagram, has changed my life.

What is your favourite foodie find in the city? my current favorite is King arabic sandwich on hanover street in mayfair.

Why did you move to Joburg from america? that’s a long, long story, best told over a glass of wine. Briefly: I came for a man but stayed for the city. the rest of the story is on my blog.

What makes Joburg shine for you? the people. joburg is a gritty, confusing city that can be hard to get to know at first. But if you find the right people to show it to you, joburg is easy to fall in love with.

Blogging for you means… everything. my blog kept me going during some really tough times and it’s brought me so many amazing friends and experiences. Best of all, it’s given me a purpose and a reason to stay in joburg.

instagram or facebook? i have a blog, so obviously i depend on facebook for sharing my posts. But instagram is where my heart lies.

With their speciality being buffalo style chicken wings and the stores creative Brooklyn, New York inspired theme, accompanied by a touch of modern décor, and urban fittings, customers can now look forward to a dining experience unlike any other in the South African market.

The brainchild of Fournews, whose other brands include Krispy Kreme Donuts SA, News Cafe, Moyo, Smooch, Café Fino and Go! , Brooklyn Brothers offers an informal and trendy raw urban eating experience that delivers real value for money.

The first Brooklyn Brothers has just opened its doors in the Bedford Centre, Bedfordview and diners have the option of being seated or ordering a “grab and go” meal.

Brooklyn Brothers offers an authentic modern American diner experience

Get more bang for your buck with the all-new and super delicious Mr Big Stuff Restaurant in Braamfontein. Have your cake and eat it too should be their philosophy because this American style diner is all about indulgent satisfaction. And lets be honest Hello Joburgers we are all entitled to a day of pure indulgence (at least that’s what I keep telling myself.)

The diner is pure happiness; no seriously the wallpaper engulfs this eccentric space with a thousand smile emoticons. So 2015!

Current, innovative, contemporary and trendy, Mr Big Stuff is full of bottomless fun. The diner basically turns your dreams into a reality because if like me, your dream is fried, frizzled, gratifying junk food then this is the jackpot.

Mr Big Stuff- The Big Apple in Jozi townSit back, relax and take in the aromas of chicken and waffles. Yes you heard me, fried chicken and fresh waffles! I also recommend the amazeballs Mac n Cheese Squares which are deep fried, crunchy, tasty, salty, moreish and oh so blow your mind unbelievable. Honestly, they’re the best invention since smores. You will feel the ease of your bulging belly as you dig in but be warned, you wont be able to stop.

Next on the to eat list: the Crazy rebel Burger, a light soft bun, 120g beef patty, bacon, cheddar, fried onions, pickles and the secret Big Stuff sauce. Hashtag yum! And for dessert? Milkshakes of course. Try the chocolate and peanut butter or the coffee and condense milk but my fave is the banoffee caramel with sprinkles on top. Winning!

Mr Big Stuff is sure to hit the spot!

we’re taking a break from trend spotting this month. our good friend, sports journalist

wardah hartley, called us up for a fashion intervention. she had agreed to a feature on a popular television magazine programme. wardah is usually most comfortable in her trendy sports gear but required her fashion fairy godfathers’ expertise in this instance. it’s not often that we get to put our trend-spotting abilities into practice under pressure! so we were only too keen to hit the ground running and take one for the team...

In recent years, craft beer has taken our South African population by storm and until the 2nd of July 2015, I (like many women) didn’t feel the need to participate. But when my lips first kissed the chilled circumference of this draft glass, my internal areas beamed with shear satisfaction. Devil’s Peak Brewing Company’s New Lager clearly has a reforming taste that resounds through its subtle aroma. Light in body, the lager titillates at your taste buds and thinking process. Who knew that’s exactly what I wanted? That day, I left the Wolfpack Sandton at my hoppiest J t @devilspeakBC

wardah is usually seen sporting the latest in gym gear for her intense workout sessions. she required a ‘fashion fix’ in order to get the right look for her shoot.

we went through wardah’s closet and selected some items we thought would work well to create both dazzling day and night looks. a stunning diane von furstenberg dress struck the perfect balance of casual sophistication…

Hamleys, the world’s oldest and most-loved toy shop, will be bringing fun, magic and entertainment to South Africa when their Cape Town and Johannesburg stores open in August 2015. The Toy shops will include thousands of quality toys, opportunities for children to play, engaging store design, expertise in service and amazing toy demonstration – all the unique features that make Hamleys “The Finest Toy Shop in the World!”
