It was early evening and Eugene and I were visiting the first born of the Grand sisters, The Grand Café & Rooms at 27 Main Road, Plettenberg Bay. We entered the Café through huge double doors and the same feeling of otherworldliness that we experience at Grand, Camps Bay and Grand, Granger Bay overtook us. We were encountering another era, another time and place. Lights are dim and the lamps are lit. But it is far from gloomy. It is warm, welcoming and bewitching.
Plettenberg Bay was enjoying a balmy evening and we were shown to a table on the terrace. This meant passing through the interior of the restaurant and past the fantastical things that are everywhere. The terrace is cool and sheltered with a view of sea and white sands and pale blue mountains in the distance.
