By Hedi Lampert Kemper

ew things can cast more of a shadow over the latter part of my weekend than the spectre of an early morning meeting in the city. Beating the traffic means rising at an ungodly hour such as might induce the kind of nausea, I still, all too readily, associate with the panic of desperate, Flast-minute cramming for exams, and the alternative is throwing away an hour or more of precious time to the inbound city traffic. Unless of course you opt for the road less travelled and infinitely more serene – and now that I’ve done it, I can from my lofty, omniscient perch also claim that here lies Nirvana – literally. After all nothing is guaranteed to pulverize Sunday afternoon blues into oblivion more effectively than a Sunday night at a luxury inner-city hotel.

I packed an overnight bag and drove into the city, with the motorway virtually to myself, taking particular delight in a little acceleration on those marvelously engineered curves on De Waal drive, and after checking in at The Taj, and being shown to my rather wonderful room, it was with a tiny pang of regret I turned my back on the breathtaking view of St Georges Cathedral and the Company Gardens with the backdrop of table Mountain’s slopes glinting in the golden, late afternoon light. But, the Ayurvedic delights of the hotel’s Jiva Spa beckoned, and minutes later, I was reclining, wrapped in a silky, cotton robe, sipping a steaming cup of “detox” tea, brewed with fresh lime, basil leaves and sweetened with jiggery (an unreﬁned, whole sugar derived from sugar cane and date palms, and apparently rich in vitamins and minerals, particularly iron,) and, frankly, I couldn’t imagine anywhere else I’d rather be.

My therapist bathed my feet in a hand beaten copper bowl filled with warm water and rose petals and informed me that in true Indian tradition, Jiva believes in the time-honoured adage “Atithi Devo Bhava,” which means: “the guest is god,” and the treatment which followed was indeed heavenly. I had Champi, an authentic Indian head massage followed by a facial. All lentils and kidney beans, naan bread and fluffy steamed basmati rice. If I’d the creams and lotions used at the Jiva Spa are natural products containing had a teaspoonful of space left for dessert, I would have opted for malai kulfi a heady mix of exotic herbs and spices. After the treatment I was invited to – a cardamom ice cream, to round off the culinary extravaganza. make use of the sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi, which I did. But back in the room, another menu awaited us – a pillow menu! I was almost weak with delight. What to choose? The orthopaedic neck pillow, the full body hugger, goose or duck down or a cotton filled puff of pleasure? The latter was delivered to the room in minutes and the ensuing sleep was deep and refreshing.

We rose early enough to watch the rosy, dawn light on the top of Table Mountain while the city streets below slowly began to wake up, punctuated by the odd call of a gull straying a little far from the ocean.

After a sumptuous breakfast buffet at Mint Restaurant, it was still, happily, too early for my meeting in the city, so, wide-eyed as a tourist, I meandered down St Georges Mall, taking in all the arts, crafts and fashion, and wondering why I don’t visit my exquisite city more often.

Place oil and chopped onion in a cast iron casserole dish or roasting pan and cook on a stove top until the onion starts to soften. In the meantime, squeeze the juice of one lemon over the lamb shanks, then brush with a mixture of apricot jam and beef stock granules, spreading as evenly over the meat as possible. Add the shanks to the cooking onion, and brown the meat on all sides. Add red wine, mix to combine, cover with the casserole lid or heavy foil and place the roasting pan in the oven. Roast for 1½ hours, basting regularly, then season with a good sprinkling of cumin, a little extra salt and a good shake of white pepper. Add three quarters of the roughly chopped dates and apricots and gently mix into the sauce. Roast uncovered for 20 minutes or until meat is nicely browned and falling off the bone. Keep basting to prevent shanks from drying out. Serve with cous cous and sprinkle with remaining apricots, dates and the almonds. 8 | DINING IN CLASSIC MUSSELS IN WHITE WINE WITH GARLIC, PARSLEY AND CREAM
