:) that looks wonderful!

However to enter the competition you need to submit your entry via PM to the person running the competition so when the pictures appear only the person running the contest knows which picture belongs to who.

If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Oops, I slipped up there! But that's OK. At least I've shared a memory of a great meal.

That did look yummy, what was that shrimp, crab, oysters, calimari and white fish?

Well the sea food in Cape Town is utterly gorgeous. We were there for three months in the Cape Bay complex. Ate at a different place every night until we found the best ones :)

That is called a "Platter for Two" and it has mussels, white fish, prawns, lobster, and calamari.

Yes, that is true, but strangely enough, the seafood at many places in Johannesburg, where I live, is better than in Cape Town. We are about 1400 km inland from Cape Town, so the best seafood is flown in packed in ice to satisfy the seafood-hungry locals. But Cape Town has the authentic marine atmosphere, which is appreciated by tourists. I spend a week there every second month; will be back there the second week in May.

Oh, very nice. They don't allow hoi polloi like me into that establishment.

It was rather posh. We had so many staying for so long the room rate was down from $200 to $75. Bit of a bubble though. I would like to have got out a bit more.

Is this image disqualified? Personally, I don't see any good reason to exclude it from the April challenge, despite the fact that its creator is not anonymous.

Thank you for that, but as the photographer, I think that may be unfair. I did not follow the rules, so I feel that I should withdraw. I am sure there will be other contests that I can take part in.

I didn't disqualify it as such but Hermes sent me other images instead. Which they are will be revealed after the competition!

You'd definitely want to avoid sashimi then.
