More a Porter, Bock, Wheat, and Scottish Ale fan...Most of my favorites you can only get in the Midwest though... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reacher Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Drank a lot of beer in South Africa. Nothing struck me as all that great. Carling Black Label is their Budweiser. Stopped at a few brewpubs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reacher Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 The wineries were awesome. Stopped at 6 wineries. Did 4 tastings. Brought home 4 bottles. Groot Constantia is the oldest in the country dating back to the 1600s. Napoleon drank their wine! Some of these wineries were incredible. Never been to Napa Valley but might have to check it out for a comparison now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I’ve traveled before I always wanted to have some of the local cuisine. Well except for England maybe?🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife bought a pint glass from Shackleton that has a penguin on it. I've already been told not to use that one when guests come over. Strictly for her. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After traveling for a day we said we were hungry and that is what they picked up, lol. Had 4 braiis. Grilled fish, steak, lamb, etc was all great. Had some Biltong, springbok carpoccio, poikie and some other stuff. Didn't try the bobotie. The fish and especially the calamari were really good. The cool thing is food is really cheap there due to the strength of the $. Had Chateaubriand (which was excellent!) for like $20. Housing is also cheap due to so many people leaving the country. If it wasn't half way around the world and had reliable utilities and medical care, it would be a great place to retire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indy1987 Posted July 21 Report Share Posted July 21 Alright, didn't want to start a new thread for this. I got a question... In the 80's there was a dance club at Dunnkirk Square on Kirkwood. Anybody remember the name? BW3 took its place maybe around 88 or 89. If I remember right there was a big dance floor downstairs and it had an upstairs were you could look down and see everyone. Pretty sure test tube shots were a big deal there. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This place was at the back part of Dunnkirk Square. There's a Ramen place in there now. Back in the 80's Roscoe Records was upstairs next to it. Then the Penquin ice cream was upfront.

Haha next door to Upstairs/Jimmy Johns? Above ZnC? Across from Roys? If so, this was just called Dunnkirk when I was there (graduated 2015). I believe this was a bar Cuban owned when he was at IU. The name has changed, it even turned into an under 21 club for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
