After our mission to Paul's Secret Spot, we were, understandably, very hungry. Nothing works up an appetite more than taking pictures of people's eyeballs. So we went a little further down the road (a clue?) to Hout Bay, all the way round the harbor to the very furtherest place where you'll find the BEST fish and chips at Fish on the Rocks.
You can't miss the place. It's positively psychedelic. They've registered the domain name 'www.africasfavourite.com' which we thought was very funny, but awesome, because if Africa the Continent really dug fish and chips, this probably would be her favorite, and they'd probably have enough hake on the premises to feed her, too.
The people who work there are extremely nice, the service is great, the vibe is great. The food is full of nutritious, delicious, tasty greasy goodness. Crack an ice-cold Coke, squirt some All Gold and enjoy. If you really like seagulls, you should definitely go here. R40 gets you a great big portion of fish and chips, which you won't finish, but you can take it down to the rocks and throw it to the birds. If you are really afraid of birds, you should definitely not go here or do this, ever.
And, when you're done with lunch, go a little further through Hout Bay and pay R30 to do Chapman's Peak drive. The views are truly world-class. There's also the thrill of danger you get from the possibility of getting squashed by a falling rock at any second, which makes you appreciate the views even more and think of the mentally unstable people who like to cycle up there. If you don't want to pay R30, the first 2.5km's are free, you just need to turn around halfway and come back, missing the most spectacular theatrical views and seeing the same thing twice.
