So by now you all know that the Cape Town Drennan’s love going out for coffee and that our local hangout is Vida at Willowbridge – mainly because its convenient and in the sun:)  Another firm favourite (which we don’t do nearly as much as we would like to) is going out for sushi.  There are a lot of great sushi restaurants in Cape Town and it is sad but true, that we haven’t been to any of them, but it is on our list of things to do, so hopefully soon.  Today rather at the last minute we decided to go for sushi so we headed to Willowbridge and ate sushi at our local sushi hangout – Woolworths – where once again everyone knows our daughter by name as well as our order – two sushi selections and one plate of prawn maki (for Grace).

Duncan and I used to share our sushi platter with her but when she started eating between 5 and 7 pieces I started to feel hard done by and decided that it was time to order her, her own plate.  Grace just LOVES sushi and today she ate 5 of her maki and 2 of our Californian rolls.  The waiters are amazed that she likes sushi and I think every time we have been there other people have commented that they can’t believe that she likes it.  I often think the people that are amazed are people who haven’t tried sushi or don’t like it.  For me I can’t understand why anyone wouldn’t like it 🙂  I know that her cousin who is a month younger than Grace appears to love sushi just as much as Grace and why not, its delicious and as a bonus healthy.  

After Grace had finished her sushi it was as if she was high on life, running around, laughing, sliding down the slide, swinging, riding her bike and just being super happy.
