PLTFRM

PLTFRM is situated at Wolwespruit, the popular mountain bike and trail run park. While set in natural surroundings, it has an industrial look and feel incorporating lots of glass, steel, wood, and brick. As we arrive, we are greeted by a friendly and excited Weimaraner. He belongs to one of the other patrons. The restaurant … Continue reading PLTFRM

Moo Moo Meet and Whine
