Claire Botha’s places of interest in Erasmusrand
1 Crawdaddy’s Brooklyn/Waterkloof Glen
I enjoy the atmosphere and the American food. I normally order prawn curry or prawn soup. They also have a nice chowder. My husband goes for ribs or steak. Cnr Middel and Dey streets, Brooklyn. 012 460 0889
2 Steak Inn
They prepare beautiful steak and that matters as my husband is big on steak. I normally eat a small steak or choose ribs. Boardwalk Lakeside, Haymeadow Cres, Faerie Glen. 012 991 4733

They’ve got the most perfect pizzas around. The decor there reminds us of our home in Italy near Gallipoli, where we lived before we came to South Africa, centre left. 16 Monument Park Shopping Centre, Skilpad St, Monument Park. 012 460 0836
