150. Jonathan Robinson - Bean There Coffee
As if proof were needed that strong narratives sell brands, my favourite local coffee brand, Bean There, has a fabulous back-story. We used their coffee in our restaurants and I was a regular in their Wale Street shop before the closed it to concentrate on the wholesale aspect of their business. I sat down for a great chat with Jono Robinson, the founder and drive behind this excellent brand to find out more about how he started and how it's going.Visit the 44 Stanley website for more information on the precinct.44 Stanley is in Instagram here.Message me here with comments or guest suggestions.Treat yourself - order direct from Zuney WagyuGet a fair price with HeadsUpTop Restaurants in Cape Town according to the Inside Guide Survey www.rwm2012.com On Instagram @a_table_inthecorner Cover image sketched by Courtney Cara Lawson All profile portraits by Russel Wasserfall unless otherwise credited Title music: 'In Time' by Olexy via Pixabay

149. Justin Bonello - Neighbourhood Farm
I'm back with Justin Bonello to chat about his urban farming project, Neighbourhood Farm in Fish Hoek. One episode just couldn't pack in all the stuff this fascinating human is doing, and I'm not sure I've managed in two. We spoke about the importance of connection kids to nature and the source of their food, the challenges of keeping an urban farming project running and the harrowing thought that although we idealise the village life, we've completely forgotten how to live as a community in a village. Justin is a really engaging guest with a lot of insights that really altered my thinking on some issues.Message me here with comments or guest suggestions.Treat yourself - order direct from Zuney WagyuGet a fair price with HeadsUpTop Restaurants in Cape Town according to the Inside Guide Survey www.rwm2012.com On Instagram @a_table_inthecorner Cover image sketched by Courtney Cara Lawson All profile portraits by Russel Wasserfall unless otherwise credited Title music: 'In Time' by Olexy via Pixabay

147. Yoraya Nydoo - Not Sad Food Co.
Fresh from a month's residency at Clarke's in Bree Street, Yoraya Nydoo of Not Sad Food Co. sat down with me to talk about the experience. We chatted about whether she and partner Claudia Alberti are ready for a bricks-and-mortar restaurant having pushed that boat out. It's a complicated answer and led to some interesting lines of discussion.Message me here with comments or guest suggestions.Treat yourself - order direct from Zuney WagyuGet a fair price with HeadsUpTop Restaurants in Cape Town according to the Inside Guide Survey www.rwm2012.com On Instagram @a_table_inthecorner Cover image sketched by Courtney Cara Lawson All profile portraits by Russel Wasserfall unless otherwise credited Title music: 'In Time' by Olexy via Pixabay
