Breakfast at Café Albert in the little Karoo town, Prince Albert

posted to: Restaurants and Eateries, Western Cape

Possibly the best break­fast I’ve ever had and a mean cap­puccino to boot is at Café Albert in the little Karoo town, Prince Albert. I can’t claim to be a con­nois­seur, but a week­end isn’t a week­end for me until I’ve gone out for break­fast. As such, I’ve tried break­fast spots all over South Africa (and in many other coun­tries) ... Continued

Road to Prince Albert

Road to Prince Albert

The drive alone is worth the four-hour trip from Cape Town to Prince Albert, and that was only the start of a week­end break that more than met expectations.

First off, let me emphas­ise that Prince Albert, which lies at the foot of the Swartberg Mountains that forms the bor­der between the Little and the Great Karoo, really is one of the best kept secrets of win­ter­ing in the Western Cape, and I write with more than a little reser­va­tion, so all who read this are sworn to secrecy!

I will not beat around the bush about the Karoo being cold dur­ing winter - it was icy — and snow-capped moun­tains formed the back­ground to much of our trip. But the days were blue, the scenery close to tear-jerking and the derth of vis­it­ors to the small Karoo town meant that we could only guess ... Continued
