Sandton is an affluent area situated within the Johannesburg Municipality, Gauteng, South Africa. It is well known for being the richest square mile in Africa. The name comes from the combination of two of its suburbs, Sandown and Bryanston. In 1969 Sandton was promulgated as a municipality in its own right, but lost its status as an independent town after the re-organisation of South African local governments.

My wife and I visited Lindt Chocolate Studio on the 31 January 2019 together with two of my grandchildren. We participated in the Chocolate Fondant Pudding Class, We were most impressed with the professionalism and enthusiasm of the staff. All ingredients had been laid out at our work stations waiting for us to begin. I felt like I was participating in Master Chef Australia, the time went very quickly and we all prepared a Lovely Chocolate Fondant Pudding. My two grandchildren who came with their grandparents cannot stop talking about how they enjoyed themselves. I am looking forward to bringing my grandchildren to another course in the future. In the meantime what about preparing a chocolate and Whisky Tasting course for us men. I promise you that the first course i will fill it up with all of my Whisky drinking buddies. - Alan Levitan

6 Things I really like about Monte Casino- Our family really enjoyed the day. It is kitsch and cool and worth a visit- super fun! 1 It transports you, it is fantasy, it's an escape from politics, crime, the economy- the everyday worries that South Africans face. 2 Musical Theatre at Monte Casino- We enjoyed lunch and went on to see Chicago. Polished perfection. A wonderful showcase for our abundant local talent and the excitement of seeing a musical theatre star from abroad added to the experience. 3 There is something for everyone. You do not have to be a gambler to be entertained. 4 Immaculate- it is really sparkling clean. The public restrooms are pristine despite how many people go in and out of them. 5 Food- Casa Bella -questo ristorante è divino ( one must praise them in Italian even if you have to copy and paste, because you aren't)- really Bellissimo-order the pizza. 6 Cherry on top- you buy your parking ticket upon entry and it is only R10.00. That was a pleasant shock- I expected that it would be way more. Recommended for locals and visitors from abroad.
