It was my darling cousin Zubairs's 21st birthday on tuesday and being in the last 10 days of Ramadan we figured we would still celebrate but notch the scale down abit. We ended up doing everything but that.
We sat long and hard thinking of an appropriate venue and Jimmys was decided. For Bhana's 21st we went to Jimmys aswell and it was really a horrible experiance. Since then they have been under new management. We were however skeptical as to having a function there again.
So we booked a reservation for 20 people (as the originals decided it should only be the hybrids that attended so they didnt "spoil"our fun) so everything was organized by us. The little ones. A few days before the time Bhana was still being a stressball and kept making lists just to make certain she covered everything.
As we sorted out presents weeks before the time, Jewels and I arrived at Canal Walk at 4 to get everything sorted and set up.(Yes set up, because we awesome like that)
So our Party at Jimmys:
We reserved a table which was right by the Buffet and that walked onto the Patio which is so gorgeous and also made it secluded and made a party somewhat more private. Management aswell as staff was really fantastic as they just gave us free reign and we did as we please. Also in addition, the manager organised an extra table for us to set up the gifts and that Fabulous cake.

Jewels made these ties herself with 2 serviettes OMG im So proud of her creativity |
We ordered about 12 Helium ballons at the party shop next to La rocca and I had a few people wishing me as Happy birthday as I walked with. Haha So fun!
Our waiter, Cloudio seriously gave us the best service ever. For starters the had soup and each person gets a starter plate of 6 prawns. Savouries were put on the table (But im not sure if this only happens in Ramadan) and dates were provided. The Buffet costs R99 per person and the menu is apparently different each week but you do hve the option of ordering from the set menu in store.

Big ups to this main man Cloudio_ somebody please give this guy a Bells |
Okay so before I end off there was something that bothered me though, Like by the name you would assume that the prawns would be out of this world, but there was nothing killer about them.But other then that no complains about the food as it was so delish!
Jimmy's is located in the corner of the food court at Canal Walk which is rather hidden (Next to Mcdonalds). I definitely cant wait to go back. (Just thinking of those ribs is making me hungry)
What an amazing evening with amazing people.
