The Annex.


 A perfect Kalk Bay day. My pre-birthday treat of lunch at The Annex. We shared a steak sandwich with caponata and mushroom sauce plus the shiitake mushroom risotto. When I tasted the risotto I said to my friend: 'there's something going on here!' It was obvious that they'd used homemade stock and then they'd hidden baby carrots, peas and mangetout in between the mushrooms. Cunning! The portions were hale and hearty - a good thing, as we were eating for three. :-)
We were surrounded by a low hedge of lavender and mint full of lazy bees and sheltered by a huge umbrella pine. This has to be the best spot to sit and drink a glass of wine and solve the problems of the world.
Thanks D.
