My life consists of wanderings, both far away and close by. Weekends, when I'm home, usually finds me exploring my immediate environs. The restaurants lining the small craft harbour, Naval Island or the CBD are. Though I am by no means a foodie, I know what I like. My food must be prepared with enthhusiasm and served with, if not panache, then at least some respect. In this regard I have a few stalwarths such as Maritino's on the Bay and The Elephant and I in the Boardwalk, that never fail to deliver. But today my grandson and I decided to try out a new place. To wit: Le Cuisine in Richards Bay where we ate twice for the price of one: the first time and the last time. It's predecessor , the Fish Eagle, served a fair meal. Not exciting, but wholesome enough. This one was a disaster from the word go. Should we have been warned by the lack of visible patronage (Yes!)
After a while of standing around we were shown to a table. ordered capuchino, my grandson a coke. First warning. My cup, of very questionable quality, was also not level. Which meant that if you stirred it half the coffee slopped over the windward side
