Take time with the Times

About Take time with the Times

Ease your way into the warmth of a Cape morning with a copy of the Cape Times newspaper hot off the press alongside an over easy egg breakfast, hot from the kitchen. Get your breaking news at daybreak on a cobbled corner in De Waterkant; fork in one hand, folded local press print in the other and a rotation ritual for buttering your toast.
