Whisk'ed Away

Being in Johannesburg, sucked in by the hustle and bustle of the city, a place to clear your mind is hard to come across.

Spliced Media founder Caid Pontus has taken a trip to the City of Gold to see the sights, and visit family. On her journey, she was introduced to an awesome spot, with unlimited potential.

Whisk, a Speciality Food and Wine Bar, is an amazing clash between old and new.
Vintage clocks, literature and craft beer, with music that that caters for any age?
It is a world that you can successfully enter, and unplug from the Matrix.

For the smokers, there is plenty space for you to enjoy your vice. For the ones with children, there is an amazing back garden area for the little ones to have fun!

Be sure to try the Strawberry and Lime beer, and pretty much anything on the menu. Your tastebuds will thank you later.
