LOKL Nobody confirmed It'll be a nightmare to ask OCCT members to confirm or not cos' half of them will say they're coming & won't or vice versa - from past experience Plus, we'll more than likely have non members attend as well I asked Jason to ask on the OCCT member only fb group how many people are 150% attending, but he suggested we rather not cos' it won't give us an exact amount klonkie asked how many people we booked for at B&B - I said 20 - question answered  With events like these at places like this, it's almost impossible to know how many people are attending & becomes a bit tricky - reservation wise Nika-WP wrote: Corsa Addict wrote: We've made a reservation at Barley & Biltong for 13h00 - for those that wanna sit down & have a bite to eat with us Is B&B the preferred option foodwise? Or is it because they have the most space? We first wanted to book La Grapperia. They asked for a R75 refundable deposit - per head - cos' it's a >20 group booking B&B offered us a table for 20 - without any deposit If we increase it to 30 @ B&B (we wanted to), we're forced to order from a "group menu" with only 2 burger options - R160 per burger incl. a 15% tip So we opted on the 20 seater PS. Burgers come without fries, those are extra

Hectic, these places are full of nonsense clearly. Completely understand the struggle  Really looking forward to it but not paying R105 for a mushroom so they better serve fries as a meal

Yep, they are And quite pricey But it's a very nice place  I'm sure you guys will enjoy it (if you haven't been there before) There's beer & chocolate & wine & biltong & cured meat tasting, etc.

Before I forget: The piece of road marked in red below is where they are busy with roadworks & a stop/go system - roads are driveable & tarred but just watch for unexpected humps/bumps/loose stones Then as you go up to Spice Route, there are concrete slabs so no gravel, but there is gravel at the top & the parking on the left is also gravel/loose stones....so we're gonna try for the parking on the right which is grass (well, some of it at least) Either way, you can wash your car but don't go overboard cos' it's gonna get a bit dusty/dirty Just a suggestion  Give your car a cowboy splash typa wash!
