Blasters Family Restaurant Zomato Meetup

I was invited to Blasters for a Zomato Meetup for the launch of their summer menu and what a great night it was.

For those of you that have never heard or been to Blasters then I suggest you make a turn there and bring your whole family along. 

It the kind of restaurant that takes care of your kids while you sit and enjoy a good meal. It has the largest indoor play area in Cape Town and it is very well supervised so there is no need to worry about your children. 

Upon arrival at the event we were treat to welcome drinks. For the girls a lovely cocktail and for the boys Devils Peak beer. We did some socializing before being seated and had a tour of the restaurant and play area. We got to meet and dine with the owners and what great people they are and you can easily see how passionate they are about what they have built.

First up were the starters and we got a platter of their Jalepeno poppers, amazing bites and sticky grilled chicken wings. These were served with homemade chakalaka sauce ( we also each got a bottle to take home) and 1000 island sauce. It was also great tasting and even better we got to chose from a wine pairing of either red or white wine; a Boschendal La Bouquet and Maratie Melcks. 

Then came the main meal and also a platter style selection of the new items. It consisted of a peppered sirloin with garlic butter, jalepeno and Brie stuffed burger, bacon and cheese stuffed burger, chicken parmegano, Blasters summer salad and lastly their proudly SA braai pizza. Wow was it delicious and difficult to chose a favourite but if I had to choose it would be the peppered sirloin. These were paired with a Stellenrust Sauvignon Blanc and a Franschoek Cellars "Cellars" Cabernet Sauvignon Blanc.

Last up were the desserts consisting of their Lindt Chocolate brownie, frozen cheesecake, summer berry crumble and apple tart. My favourite would be the berry crumble and the frozen cheesecake, it was just so good I can't choose one. 

We were also treated to some entertainment by their local magician who is there every Sunday afternoons and it's free for to all customers. 

Thank you to Zomato for this opportunity and to the Blasters family for a great and amazing dining experience!
