News
As reported last month, Cambridge Crossing
shopping centre in Paulshof has finished its reconstruction. As listed
below, several new tenants have moved in. The centre has also seen the
return of two tenants that closed during the rebuilding: Golden Rose
Chinese Restaurant & Sushi Bar, and Rawson Properties. Off The Grid
Restaurant and Vet To Pet have moved opposite to the new (east) wing.
Meanwhile, under the alleged "management" of Broll,
Morning Glen Mall
continues to haemorrhage tenants. Following the apparent bankruptcy of
Cafeum Diem last month, the Wimpy has now closed too. This leaves no
restaurants on the lower level, and even more empty shops.
Odd Jobs
Is a decade in the same job a "ten year tenure"?

Restaurant Reviews by Judith Back to top
**** Pronto, The Colony, 345 Jan Smuts Ave, Craighall
The idea was for Rick to donate blood, hence we went to the Colony centre. I stayed
downstairs and went to Pronto, a fairly new restaurant and ordered a lovely Protea
Sauvignon Blanc with lots of ice, whilst waiting for him. Unfortunately his iron
was too low for him to donate, so that part of the mission had to be abandoned.
We decided to share the chicken breasts as they came with vegetables and chips.
The latter were crispy as required! There was enough for two meals and two sets of crispy chips. Our
waiter was Ali Mncedisi and very efficient
Pronto's has a non-smoking outside facing the car park as well as one for
smokers facing the road. There is a large interior as well. We can recommend it
for friendly service and excellent food.
Contact Details for Pronto Italian Restaurant & Bar.
**** Salsa Mexican Grill, Rivonia Village
Brand new and on the corner of Mutual Road and Rivonia Boulevard, Salsa presents a
totally new way of eating! Check how hot the food is before ordering so that you
don't get a shock! Fortunately I love hot but Rick doesn't. We ordered Appletiser and Darling Cellars Bush Vine Sauvignon Blanc --one I've not had
before. A very pleasant wine and well priced, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
To eat, I had the Fajita Steak, which very good and Rick ordered beef strips
and Guacamole. The latter I tried and it was very good as well. Rick found his dish unpleasantly hot. We were also taken aback at the idea of
paying R15 for an empty bowl to put other food into.
This is a restaurant with a vibe, totally non-smoking and Simangaliso was an
excellent waiter. Thoroughly recommend it for a great night out.

Civic News: Give your Comments on
the City's Rates Policy
The City of Johannesburg invites all residents and interested parties to give
input into the City’s Property Rates Policy, Review. This annual process ticks
the boxes so that the municipality can later claim that residents have
been consulted on the Rates Policy, and they can then pretend that the tariffs
are equitable and affordable.
Join a meeting at one of the following to have your say:
Region B: 19 February, 18:00-20:00 at Marks Park, Pavilion Hall, Judith Road, Emmarentia.
Region C: 28 February, 18:00-20:00 at Roodepoort City Hall, Cnr Dieperink and Berlandina Streets, Roodepoort
Region E: 10 February, 10:00-12:00 at East Bank Hall, Cnr Springbok and Impala Streets, Alexandra.
Region E: 21 February, 18:00-20:00 at Hibiscus Hall, Jabula Recreation
Centre, Cnr Anne Street and Athlone Ave, Sandringham.
Region E: 26 February, 18:00-20:00 at Ernest Ullmann Park Recreation Centre, 1 Alma
Road, Gallo Manor.
Region F: 29 January, 18:00-20:00 at Hillbrow Recreation Centre, Cnr Clarendon and Pretoria Streets, Hillbrow.
