more on CapeTown GOLD RESTAURANT-entertainment too

The proper restaurant website is www.goldrestaurant.co.za and I completely forgot to mention there was a complete show throughout the night featuring the guys dressed in giant puppet like costumes (one a native, one an antelope or such), there were many dancers and a dance of two male warriors as well as the entrance of the king and queen (people with giant masks) and a gorgeous soprano who sang the whole time.

She was joined by the waiters and the drummers and the whole staff really got into it as we did too. So much for my prejudice against folkloric shows as this was a real treat and a perfect intro on our first night in South Africa.
