Tribeca

Down the main road, along the seaside, within a little fishing village of a Cape Town suburb known as Kalk Bay, lies my favourite coffee shop / bakery Tribeca. The lattes come in huge soup bowl sized cups and the coffee apparently has been voted 'Top 3 in SA'. Which I won't care to argue too much over, as it really is good coffee. Says me; confessed coffee snob.

They also potentially make my favourite Eggs Benedict. I say this with caution, but as Eggs Benedict is my absolute favourite breakfast, I've sampled a good many varieties, and Tribeca's is pretty darn wonderful. Also, I always have salmon with my EB - can't skimp on the Omega-3 now kids (and it just tastes so. darn. good).

One can imagine my absolute delight when Tribeca opened a store one block away from me. Yes, I can WALK to Tribeca now. Or take a bike (when it doesn't have a flat). Or have people pick me up from when I have convinced them to join me. There is also a third store not particularly far from me either. So now one can find a Tribeca in Kalk Bay, Bergvliet and Tokai. But that's not all folks: because there's a little Tribakery vibe in the new Blue Route Mall. Lovely.

We also like it because they donate all their day olds to a local schools feeding program, and they have free Wi-Fi.Everyone likes free Wi-Fi.

There is currently a R25 coffee and cake special on Mon - Fri from 2pm. On Sat (when I last popped in) there was White Chocolate Cheesecake and Red Velvet Cheesecake. Too much of goodness. And if you're wondering about the name: yes, it IS named after the area in New York City and is filled with gorgeous New York pictures. Perfection.
