Category Lifestyle
For those fortunate enough to live within the scenic and tranquil setting of Hartbeespoort dam, there is a little slice of Parisian heaven located on Tielmann Street close to Ifafi that locals are proud to call part of their home.
The History behind the attraction
The French Toast Coffee Cafe was initially built as an official bar in the movie French Toast; those that know the movie tend to refer to it as Cafe Alexandre. The history of the restaurant shares its story with prints spread across the walls of the cafe, and that sets the atmosphere reminiscent of the movie set itself. Especially because a certain portion of the cafe is a gallery that also appears in the film.
The Eiffel Tower, 'I love you wall' and love bridge
The Parisian and movie set experience is expressed throughout the cafe both inside and out. After the filming of the movie the cafe kept certain elements for the public to see and experience, these were elements like the 12.5 m Eiffel Tower, the "I love you" wall and the love bridge.
Now that this is an attraction in Hartbeespoort people can experience unforgettable moments under the Eiffel Tower, walking on the love bridge and solidifying their commitments with loved ones at the 'I love you wall'.
