Hermanus, a quiet coastal town in South Africa, was recently struck by a horrific crime that led to a series of unfortunate events. The discovery of a young girl’s mutilated remains in a plastic bag has not only shaken the community but sparked xenophobic attacks and displaced hundreds of foreign nationals.
If you’re looking for a slice of the Greek Islands in the heart of Hermanus, Theo’s Taverna is your best bet. From the moment you step through the door, you’re greeted with cobaltdrenched décor, bougainvillaeafestooned pergolas, and bluechecked tablecloths in the shaded courtyard. The whitewashed walls adorned with a map of Greece and old photos create a charming backdrop for the classic menu of authentic Greek cuisine.
