    The Taj in Cape Town never disapoints. Every single individual who is part of the Taj team are top class and always make us feel so special. The pairing evening at Mint was a winner in every way. Well done

    A little overkill with the service for a high tea. There was a Birthday going on and we felt we were invading as they put the deserts right into the party and we could see that the party thought we were invading their food.
