"Sweeeeeet Caroline....BA BA BAHHHHH!!!" Thursday the 15th of June saw the official launch of the brand, spanking new (and biggest) Tiger's Milk here in the beating heart of Stellenbosch. The Stellies Tiger's Milk branch has been up and running for the better part of this year, however, due to finalizing details surrounding their liquor license and having to shimmy aside for the Winter Classics in Muizenberg, they finally found the perfect date to welcome all the beloved locals, press and admirers of everything sweet-n-sticky for their grand opening. Some familiar faces from the industry were also spotted...Bruce and Karen Collins from Stellies Brewing Company out on Joostenberg farm and Rob Boustred and family from Remhoogte, who makes the lip-smackingly good range of Wildbeast craft beers. The chilly Winter's evening was filled with great, live music, hot-out-of-the-wood-fired-oven Pizza, burgers and fabulous cocktails made with the local boutique "Six Dogs" gin. One of the things that sets this Tiger's Milk apart from the others is its unique wine list. Some smaller, boutique farms have been added to the wine list, as well as some locally-crafted gins. You'll find a few more local Stellenbosch wineries represented here...and this specifically to give locals a taste of what they know and the names they've become familiar with. Also aimed towards out-of-towners or foreigners, so that they too will be able to experience what Stellenbosch and Franschhoek wine has to offer. "Drink quality...Drink Stellenbosch". Stellies Tiger's Milk might still be the new kid on the block...but this Kitchen/Bar has become an overnight success. Join them for Happy Hour every weekday between 5 and 7pm for half price cocktails, house wine and more. And, now that it's almost time for Wimbledon...what better place to watch a couple sets between Djok and Nadal?
Sing along to Johnny Cash and Guns n Roses, try the lamb and hummus pizza (a personal favourite)...or the whopping TRIPLE BIPASS BURGER (cutlery optional...wet wipes not). The perfect spot for people-watching on a lazy Saturday arvie on Dorp street's famous corner.
