Smoothies at Kauai Foil Power Outage Blues

Cape Town’s power woes got you down? Pick yourself back up at Kauai in Sea Point, where lack of electricity is no obstacle to smoothie bliss.

As Your Correspondent helpfully demonstrates, Kauai’s inventive cure for the city’s thirsty but electricity-challenged multitudes is – bike-power! After a brisk 30-second pedal, your smoothie ingredients are blended together beautifully; and you have achieved true refreshment against all the odds.

My power outage smoothie of choice: the 350ml “Super Green”, with spirulina and wheat grass, just R16.50.
