If you haven’t yet been to Manna Epicure (151 Kloof St), then you’re totally missing out. That place is absolutely gorgeous! Oh and the food is pretty yummy too… 
There’s a really cute outside deck area where you can enjoy the sunshine on a warm day:
Pretty from the outside…
But the most stunning part is the interior – crisp white-on-white design that just blows you away:
But even prettier inside!!!
There’s some seriously fun elements too, like this in-your-face wooden chandellier type light:
It’s totally overwhelming, slightly strange… yet so incredibly awesome…
To kick off my Manna experience, I opted for a Chai Latte. I am totally Chai Latte obsessed at the moment, just can’t get enough of the stuff! You could hook me up to a Chai Latte drip and I would be in heaven…
Come to mama!
Then I just couldn’t resist indulging in the french toast croissant with bacon, brie cheese, rocket and honey. Doesn’t that just sound soooooo good!?
Oh yeah baby… you turn me on…
Lastly my friend Nix and I decided to share a piece of the red velvet cake that we had beein eyeing out since sitting down at our table. I had never had red velvet cake before, so I was very excited…
Seriously, how beautiful is this cake? It’s almost too pretty to eat…
I think in my mind, because of the bright red colour – I was expecting something totally different. Like some kind of crazy berry flavour that packed a lot of punch. But in reality it just kinda tasted like a mildly flavoured chocolate cake… hmmmm… disappointment… It was slightly dry as well, but I think that was because we had the last piece that was left on the display. Never a good option. Nix claims that she can make a much better red velvet cake and that I will totally fall in love with it. She’s just gonna have to prove herself on that one, but I will be all to happy to be part of the tasting panel. haha.
I decided not to let the cake mishap affect my feelings about Manna in general, so my Miss K Kiss-o-Meter ratings would be as follows:
- Vibe:
- Price:
- Food:
- Service:
After all those kilojoule heavy treats I had to starve myself the rest of the day (I’m sadly not even joking) – but it was 100% worth it.
