A light in an otherwise dark market
At the suggestion of my fearless "Tech Guru" Dave Duarte, it apears to be time that I had some input on the highly popular site.
I am American born and bred, with a background in marketing and finance. After a number of years with Morgan Stanley I decided to explore the world.
First stop, Australia and a contract as marketing director for The Perth Mint. Eventually on a flight from Sydney to Perth I chanced to sit next to a stunning girl from JoBurg and the rest is history. I suspect that she was actually part of a clandestine branch of the SA government called the Ministry for Improved Inbound Migration. I should have picked this up when the houskeeper kept referring to her as Miim!!
So we opened the first Caffeine on Riebeek street just over a year ago. Given that it is between Moulin Rouge and Adult World I think alot of people thought I was out of my mind, but that little shop has a feel all it's own and can get quite buzzy around lunchtime. Caffeine Hout Bay came on line early in March and with a large, sunny, outdoor seating area is a great place to spend a lazy afternoon. And now we are in Seapoint and I am personally committed to melting the ice in this little corner of Cape Town. We pride ourselves on warm friendly service, good food at great value, and a comfortable setting, and the hardcore coffee. We run a list of specials that is constantly changing, fresh muffins, soup, quiche, and different items that draw on a world of influence.
Take time out of your day to pay us a visit, if you do nothing more than enjoy a cup of our custom blended coffee I guarantee you will be glad you found us. Drop us an e mail and we'll add you to our e mail list that covers specials and specials events.
We'll be waiting for you. Joe Gibialante
You're likely to find me making muffins >>>

I am most keen to join your network group on Wednesdays. Is this possible?
Hey Joe I forgot your e-mail address(actually I think I remember and will try what I think it is). In case I’ll write here to thank you again for your “SPECTACULAR” guidance around Hout Bay, Cape Town and the region while we were there last month.
You are awesome.
In looking through my pictures, I didn’t actually get any of a baboon’s ass — but I have a lot on my safari pages of several other animals’ posteriors.
Check it out, there are a few pictures of you in there too. http://www.kevincobrien.com/africa/birthday
