Entertainer app value in Table View with CTFM, Pink Olive and Doodles

Most of our eating out last weekend was due to the 2-for-1 vouchers offered by the Entertainer App – plus, the usual R495 registration fee is free if you’re using FNB’s Banking App and earn eBucks! See some of the treats we sampled below…

Thursday, 10 January 2019: Mid-week dins at Doodles

Last Thursday evening we had just downloaded the Entertainer app for free through the FNB banking app, so decided to try it out on a local dins. We used a ‘2-for-1 mains’ voucher at Doodles – so we paid for Husband’s linefish – the angelfish served with veggies and tartare sauce – while my Cajun chicken pizza was free. Also see Husband’s glass of red, as well as his Orange Fanta and my caramel shake. A very good dins!

Friday, 11 January 2019: Work-from-home treats

I worked from home last Friday, so treated myself to the following mid-morning snack – a cup of ‘cinnamon bun’-flavoured Hug in a Mug instant cappuccino, and a pack of Hot Fudge Sundae-flavoured Pop Tarts. Yum!

Saturday, 12 January 2019: Artideli breakfast, El Barrio cocktails, CTFM family dins

We breakfasted at Artideli in Melkbosstrand on Saturday morning. See Husband’s mince-and-egg-on-toast and my caramel- and banana-filled pancake. Not pictured – our Peacocks cappuccinos, as they were already finished. Not on Entertainer app.

Pretty clouds in the sky looking across from Blouberg to Table Mountain that afternoon.

We stopped in at El Barrio for our Saturday afternoon treat. We shared a portion of the jalapeno poppers, with the margarita el muerte for me and the pink mask cocktail (El Jimador, strawberries, coconut water and Malibu) for Husband. Not on Entertainer app. (Yet).

The margarita la muerte (death) with Olmeca black, blackberry liqueur, tamarind and black salt rim. Just look at it. Very tasty and top marks for presentation, but taste-wise I think the pineapple-habanero version I sampled the week before is the clear winner! Click here for a reminder.

After a brief nap at home, it was time for dins with Husband’s parents. See the view from our table at CTFM in Seaside Village, Big Bay, just before sunset.

Husband had the East Coast potjie, presented as such.

See my chicken schnitzel with chips and pepper sauce, one of our free meals for using the Entertainer app again.

Lol! None of us have our ‘photo faces’ ready for this photo.

Sun setting over the mountain as we finished our dins. Beautiful!

We only noticed the pretty lights strung up outside CTFM on our way out.

Sunday, 13 January 2019: Pink Olive breakfast, Village Place mini cakes

We used the Entertainer app again on Sunday, this time on a 2-for-1 breakfast voucher at the Pink Olive in Stark Ayres Nursery. See the pretty decor as well as one of our flat whites, my French toast with cream cheese, bananas and syrup (free, as it was the cheaper of the two meals we ordered) as well as Husband’s standard weekend breakfast: the egg- and mince-topped toast.

A sunflower-themed long table outside the Pink Olive, waiting for its party to arrive.

Husband standing ankle-deep in the sea that afternoon.

I barely even dipped my toes as the sea was so cold, but that ‘beachy smell’ was amazing!

Our Sunday afternoon treat was a shared red velvet cheesecake (mini cake) and coffee shake at Village Place Cafe. Not on Entertainer app.

Little Miss Bassie decided to travel in the backseat with her brother for a change, while on our way to her grandparents. She seemed in awe of his big, lolling tongue.

Mum made a sunny pineapple mousse for dessert after lupper on Sunday.

That’s all, folks! Have a delicious, relaxing weekend. 🙂
