CHAIRPERSON’S REVIEW
Theodore Yach
4
What is your favourite time of the day in Cape Town? At five in the afternoon when I’m on the mountain with my hooligan German Shepherd Zara.
If you could keep one small part of the Central City in your pocket, what would it be, and why? The little statues on Pier Place as they are so lifelike.
Tell us your inner-city secret? Rosa’s Bakery on Shortmarket Street. When I’m feeling low, I hide out there and eat as many pastries as I can!
If someone had enough time to do just one thing in the Central City, what would you advise them to do? Visit the Old Town House on Greenmarket Square – the juxtaposition of the Old Masters paintings and the market on the Square is surreal.
This city is mine because? We have made it a haven for every Capetonian to enjoy. The essence of the city is . . . The hustle and bustle at rush hour at Cape Town Station – those are real people going about their lives.
