THE GREENSIDE CAFE - Greenside, Gauteng Central

Thursdays: MEDIA & GASTRONOMY, July Focus: VEGAN & VEGETARIAN RESTAURANTS.


SAVING THE PLANET ONE MEAL AT A TIME!


Nestled in the heart of Greenside, the Greenside Cafe' is a vegan haven. The food is prepared with integrity, love & mindfulness for human beings, other beings and the planet. 

Greenside Cafe' is encouraging people to "Go Green, Be Veg & Save the Planet". The impact that a vegetarian, and even better, a vegan diet has on our planet is profound. It reduces the carbon footprint because the meat and dairy industry require deforestation, huge amounts of water, most of the world's crops (for animanl feed), antibiotics and hormones to produce meat and dairy. Animal agriculture uses up to 70% of the available clean water on earth. 

The owner, Dimitri Gutjahr, prides himself in his food combinations and claims that his customers love he way they feel, and the abundant energy the receive after eating at the Greenside Cafe'. 

"Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet." Albert Einstein.

THE GLADIATOR

Tuesdays: MARATHONS & SPORTING EVENTS, July Focus: OUTDOOR ADVENTURE TRAIL RACES 


This is cool, and definitely has a little dig on the others as to how things should be done, we say do them all and decide for yourself. But these 'Gladies' mean business. 

They say that The Gladiator is a race for the BIGGEST couch potato to the most EXTREME athlete. 
The Gladiator is an obstacle course ranging from 6km of awesome trails in the centre of Joburg to half-marathon distances in the koppies of Muldersdrift. 
For those who would like to challenge themselves beyond a fun-run, like ti get down and dirty, but perhaps not so dirty that they have throw away their kit after the race, then perhaps the Gladiator is for you. Consider yourself a mudder, or warrior? Then perhaps its time to become a gladiator. 

Ha, Challenge accepted ne'?!

Check out their cool website @ thegladiator.co.za or contact them on 011-367-0661 or mail them, info@thegladiator.co.za
