The Delicious Divas: March 2009

Well, last Tuesday night (sorry I've been slack in getting these pictures up!!) saw The Delicious Divas seated at Meloncino in the V&A Waterfront for dinner. It was a stunning evening and we sat right next to the huge open doors looking out over the lights twinkling in the water. Had the sun still been up, we would have had a beautiful view of our gorgeous Table Mountain as a backdrop.

It was a really fun dinner club - there was much celebrating over the safe arrival of baby Nina May and bubbly was ordered and enjoyed in her honour. While we missed having Caroline with us at our dinner, it was just so exciting for us to all be together to celebrate the birth of her beautiful second daughter. We wish you, Caroline and Craig, everything of the best in this next chapter!! And we can't wait to have you back at dinner club!!

Meloncino is an Italian restaurant and boasts 3 genuine Italian chefs. It's a relatively trendy and very busy restaurant with the most divine pizzas and pastas (I had one with parma ham, rocket and parmesan shavings - to die for). Their wine list is extensive and offers the best of the best. Since they're based in the Waterfront, one of our top tourist destinations, the service level was good and we all had a great time.

For me, the only downer was that the waiter never brought me my leftovers (half a pizza!) to take home with me. While I don't enjoy walking around with a pizza box full of leftovers tucked under my arm. I would've enjoyed another slice of that pizza for breakfast!!!

And on that note, here are some shots of the night...
