Cape Town in South Africa is bursting with coffee shops & restaurants all over its vibrant city. One brand that is particularly popular in large shopping malls such as Canal Walk, Cavendish & the Da Luz Mall in Seapoint along the beach, is “Osumo“.
Osumo is a small chain of healthy food cafes in cape town. We are a happy, energetic team, dedicated to providing natural, fresh foods that truly support a balanced lifestyle.
We had a lot of fun shooting their video profiles and found all the staff and management teams to be friendly, fun & professional!
We filmed their stores in all 3 malls and can personally recommend their strawberry bliss smoothies, which we drank a lot of while shooting! :)

Zula Bar, Cape Town’s premier sound bar, is located at number 98 Longstreet.
The night we went to shoot was absolutely packed – see for yourself in the video.
The line was all the way down the road.
It really reflected the vibrant night life of Cape Town, South Africa.
I loved that this venue had people coming in to do all sorts – party, have a quiet drink or just have dinner.
They do breakfasts, lunches and dinners every day of the week.
They have various dance floors in different sections upstairs and downstairs, where people can listen to up to four different types of music on popular nights.
You can order a drink and then walk around until you find your kind of music.
Come in the week for stand-up comedy acts, acoustic music or bands and on the weekends to club.
They’re very well-known for their pizzas if you’re coming in for dinner with friends.
They’re open Mondays to Thursdays from 12pm-2am and on Fridays to Saturdays from 12pm -4am.

One of Cape Town’s favourite night clubs, Tjing Tjing is a rooftop bar located just off Longstreet, Cape Town.
We got to shoot on an absolutely packed night!
It was pumping and the video came out exceptionally.
I love their colour scheme and ‘attic’ feel.
The owner is friendly and professional and I can really recommend hiring this place out as a venue for a birthday party, corporate function or business meeting.
It has a festive atmosphere and shooting their official video profile was a dream.
I enjoyed editing this and doing the voice over particularly because I enjoy the venue so much and I wanted to do Ilse Koekemoer (owner) justice on her fabulous club!

I’m very blessed in that, through the shoots we do for Skybok, I get to travel to so many different places, meet so many different people and – best of all – see amazing things. I’m remembering now back to a place we filmed in Cape Town called Vovo Telo.
It’s a trendy little bar at the waterfront and they are really well-known for their coffees and pastries. I also love their pizzas and artisan breads. I’ve realised that the coffee culture truly has grown both here and internationally.
On the day we filmed their video profile, I just stuck to a peach iced tea. I love them and BOS is my new favourite make! How about you? Are you a coffee fiend?
Skybok’s team had the pleasure of filming Mount Nelson’s video profile here in Cape Town, South Africa.
It’s one of my favourite venues we’ve had the pleasure of profiling.
The hotel is home to many international tourists, including movie stars and travelling politicians.
Along with its high teas, it’s well-known for its brand new Planet Bar and its many ballrooms.
Shooting this was very exciting – the staff were extremely friendly and while doing it we got to witness a wedding they were having in their beautiful gardens.

The reason this is one of my favourites is because The Mount Nelson Hotel offers a large variety of services to its guests – it acts as a wedding venue, a function venue, a conference venue and not to mention its fantastic spa!

We recently shot the video profile for Skybok of Vrede en Lust Wine Farm in Franschhoek, about an hour’s drive from Cape Town.
What a pleasure!
I’m a huge fan of their wine and this is honestly one of the most beautiful wine farms I’ve seen.
They have certainly left a lasting impression!
I actually purchased their flagship wine, The Boet Erasmus 2009, at the Good Food and Wine Fest in Cape Town – see my article on it by clicking HERE.
The history of Vrede en Lust is a story of passion, vision and resurrection, which goes as far back as 1688, when Flemish merchant Jacques de Savoye arrived at the Cape with the French Huguenots.
Absolutely love their accommodation – nice place to go for a romantic weekend away!
Am I giving you some good ideas?

Bordering the waters of Kalk Bay’s gorgeous ocean, The Brass Bell is actually a lot bigger than I realised.
Going there to shoot their profile was enlightening because apart from the main restaurant that we all know and love (The Bikini Deck), there is also the Cabin Bar & Restaurant, The Water’s Edge Restaurant, The Pavilion and the Izannes fine dining restaurant!
Shooting was an absolute dream; the owner is very friendly and we were pleased with the great weather we got!
It’s always packed with people and I can see why.
It’s definitely a hot spot for a functions – birthday parties, cocktail parties or corporate functions – because of the great views, reasonable prices, efficient service and also because the whole area has such a rich history.

Watch their video (at the top) and I guarantee you you’ll be calling them to organize your next get-together!
