le quartier français
How far would you go?This weekend I will be up in Johannesburg to help look after some out of town visitors. They are here to watch the 2010 World Cup Final and, through no fault of ours, their reservations were misplaced by a Johannesburg Guest House. In fact they’re not Le Quartier Français guests but we recommended the Johannesburg Guest House in question; and sometimes to be successful in our line of work you have to go above and beyond the call of duty.
To ensure that their stay, in Johannesburg, is nothing short of exceptional we have rented a beautiful house and we’ve flown up a fantastic mini Le Quartier Français team. I’ve been included as an multi-functional member of this team and that means that I’ll definitely be involved in the housekeeping side of things. I foresee lots of washing, ironing and bed-making in my near future.  Comments: 0  
And the winner of the Le Quartier Français Affair is …Antoinette Watkins. Congratulations!

Included in Antoinette’s Le Quartier Français Affair prize is a couples massage, R150 worth of Le Quartier Français of currency (per person) and an exceptional Le Quartier Français breakfast. If you’re not Antoinette Watkins and you still want to feel like a winner why not try our R895 per person Local is Lekker special?

TV in iCi for the duration of the 2010 World Cup!Our casual bistro – iCi – will be screening World Cup 2010 matches for the duration of the tournament! This means that, starting this Friday the 11th of June 2010, iCi is going to be the place in Franschhoek to catch up on all things football. Our crackling fires will keep away those winter chills and the delicious full or bar-snacks iCi menu will ensure that you never go hungry. Lend your country’s football team your full support and watch a game, or four, in iCi. P.S. Don’t forget BaaFana Burger Friday.
Every Friday – until the end of World Cup – you can enjoy a BaaFana Burger, chips, a glass of Miss Molly wine and the free Friday night movie in our Screening Room! Remember only 30, of Lamb Burger’s Football mad nephews, make an appearance so it’s first come first serve. Yum!
