We looked up places to visit and enjoyed going round the museum especially the film of William Kentridge which is very powerful. The sculptures in the garden are amazing and it’s free entry.

I arrived at Oppie Plaas with the intention of grabbing a quick lunch, ticking the box and heading out. However, upon entering Oppie Plaas, I felt things really slow down, and all rush went out the window. Once you’re off the tarred road and at the entrance where Google Maps directs you, the farm styled restaurant is about a further 10 minute drive along a dirt road. The restaurant is an old tobacco processing structure that has been converted into what you see now, and situated on a cattle farm. The interior is decorated with objects brought down from the previous generations of the family of farmers who owned the place, including an old sewing machine, a farmers hat, and an old shovel. The placemats are laminated old newspaper pages, including an article form Huisgenoot from 1942! The owners, Rykie and Stan are extremely welcoming, and you get the feeling of visiting an old aunt and uncle. They told me stories life on the farm and about the revolution of the farm and restaurant since their family first purchased it in 1920. There’s limited cellphone signal, and no wifi - Rykie says that this is intentional as it encourages visitors to disconnect from their mobile devices and connect with other people. The food wasn’t disappointing at all - refreshing homemade lemonade, perfect for a warm day, and a Boere Burger and chips - a large beef patty on a panini bun, topped with lettuce, tomato, onion and a sweet relish. Prices are pretty decent for the excellent food, service and ambiance. While you’re at Oppie Plaas, you’re free to wander around outside where a few farm animals (all named) are housed - a few geese, chickens, and a pig. On Saturdays, kids also get to milk a cow. Oppie Plaas is a great way to spend a few hours, get that farm feeling and enjoy some great food and company.

We arrived early morning and enjoyed a cup of good coffee with the best cheese cake I have ever tasted. I thought Hoekwil (Wilderness) had the best but this cheese cake at Baris Monger beat them hands down.
