Sunday is always a question of where to go and weather permitting. We ended up at The Heath just after lunch and had very pleasant afternoon over coffee, humus and peppaw peppers on toast and the foofey (spelling) slide. On the way back we did Keurbooms just to see if there were any whales and were lucky enough to see the dolphins in the largest pod I have yet seen at any one time.

Sunday, August 26th, 2007Chillie Rose
Friday, August 17th, 2007
Chillie Rose restaurant was created by parents of three girls, currently aged three, two and one. As is the case for almost all parents in Knysna it is difficult to house to rent that is “kiddie”  friendly, let alone a restaurant that you can relax with the children.Â
Our mission statement is ”It’s for the Children”. We focus on affordable food for children and
adults. A stunning roast buffet on a Sunday, and a place for moms while dad is fishing or golfing.
Our garden is totally secured and fenced off to the waters edge, we also have a jungle gym,
bunnies and birds with a postcard view of the old railway bridge. We are also an internet
hot spot.
Our activity room focuses more on practical tasks, lots of glitter,glue,crayons,etc.
Children can also “build” their own pizza’s if they fill creative.
The restaurant area its self has a lounge area with a fire place, a bar area and a seperate dining area which can seat 70 people.
We aree open to suggestions on activities and perhaps weekend educationals, and get more parents involved in being children again.
In a nut shell Chillie Rose is a place where parents can either relax and not worry about their children or get involved in jungle gyming and having some good old fun.
All at an affordable prices.Â
Welcome to the real world
Thursday, August 9th, 2007You have got to develop a thick skin as a parent of young children. Its all part of growing up and becoming old. But it would be nice to know which catering and accommodation places do genuinely welcome children and those that are just a paste on of that tired patronising smile as you sign the credit card slip.
