When I considered the topic for the current Cold Coffee Club project " Would you let your waistline determine where you live", I thought I had firm ideas of how I'd answer the question. But, as this piece of tourron still lingers in my mouth, the feeling I get tells me that I do allow my waist (my mouth, my senses, my greed and desire) to determine what I value as pleasure. There are culinary destinations (Spain, Italy, France, India, Thailand, Vietnam, Turkey) far more glamourous, far more enticing to many than Cape Town. To us, Cape Town with all her flaws and third world problems is culinary mecca.
