"Attended the Good Night Market here on the Thursday night which happens once a month. Very festive with live music playing and a great atmosphere. Many food and drink stalls but you're welcome to bring your own bottle to supplement the good food on offer. I had a delicious salmon rosti followed by a caramel and banana pancake. Oh and of course some biltong to go with my craft beer. Highly recommended evening. On from about 5 till 9pm"
