Trip to Mzoli’s – mark your diary now
Posted on 18. Sep, 2007 by Jonathan Cherry in Streetflava
The founder of Wikipedia, Jimmy Wales, is in town and left us this comment yesterday:
‘Hilarious but true story…
I am Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia. Today I was in Mzoli’s
having lunch, and meeting with Mzoli himself, and explaining Wikipedia
to him. I searched on my cellphone for Mzoli’s to see if we had an
article about it in Wikipedia, and found this blog post comparing
Mzoli’s to Wikipedia! How fun.

Reaction to our visit which you can read here: Mzoli’s – the ultimate user-generated restaurant – Cherryflava
Monday 24 September [that's this coming Monday] is a public holiday and also National Braai day…mmmm…meat.
If you haven’t been and would love to go, or have been and want to go back – we are heading to Mzoli’s on Monday the 24th and invite YOU…the Cherryflava reader…to join us. Nothing formal, just an opportunity for a good day out in Cape Town.
Here’s the map for reference, but if maps are not your vibe – Mzoli’s Meat is a butchery just off the main Klipfontein Rd. If you take the
Modderdam Rd exit off the N2 out of Cape Town, turn left when you get to
Klipfontein Rd, Cross the railway line, pass a petrol station on your left, but carry on down Klipfontein. Turn
left at about the second road after the intersection, and you will see Mzoli’s meat immediately on your left. Easy.
We’ll be there from about 11:30am onwards. If you’re keen to join the party and experience the greatest user-generated business in South Africa, then please send us a
‘I wanna come too’ e-mail to: cherryflava [at] gmail [dot] com – before this Friday.

Was a good day out. The guys were chillin’ drinking premium beer, marinaded braai’ed lamb and recording the proceedings for prosperity.
