Third Quarter

2007 

Note from the General Manager

Ladies and gentlemen, we are half way through 2007 and I am sure you all agree, its’ probably been one of the coldest winters for a long time. However Rand Club continues to be one of the hot places to be and the gradual increase in functions reflects this fact.

I am very excited about the future of the club and the committee and I have made great efforts in trying to present you with functions that will be attractive to all age groups. Some of the speakers who will be coming to the club before the end of the year are Gill Marcus, Tito Mboweni, Steve Mulholland, David Bullard, George Bizos and don’t forget the David Williams talk on El Alamein. This year celebrates the 65th anniversary of this historic battle and will definitely be a talk not to be missed.

As mentioned in my previous report, we are introducing a new sports, music and business lounge which will be ready at the end of August just in time for the Rugby World Cup and the Cricket Pro 20 World Cup which as most of you know is taking place here in South Africa. So now you have no excuse to stay at home to watch these events because they will all be televised live at your club and would be the perfect opportunity to bring your friends and colleagues to see our wonderful establishment, which in my opinion is getting better every day.

I have managed to coordinate with 360° Entertainment to bring one of the best upcoming jazz entertainers to Rand Club. Estelle Kokot and her trio will be entertaining on the evening of Friday 31st August. Estelle was born in England of Afrikaans Diplomatic parents and she has now come back to her home country to promote her new album, “Information”. As a composer and pianist Estelle has performed her music from the Jazz Clubs of South Africa to the Barbican and Royal Festival Hall in London, as well as various European Jazz Festivals. Estelle has also just been nominated for a 2007 South African Music Award (SAMA) in the category of Best Jazz Vocal album. I am hoping that this will kick start jazz events being held at the club on a monthly basis.

One might ask how we keep you informed of all these events. You have all received emails and SMS’s concerning events taking place at your club but you can also see what is happening on the Rand Club website, www.randclub.co.za I ask you to please use this website as much as possible. The site will keep you well informed of all that takes place at your club and you can also make use of booking for a function on line. Parking, as you are all aware, can sometimes be an issue when you come and use the club. We have had an agreement with Surrey House for quite some time but unfortunately, members have not made good use of this facility. I have therefore tried to simplify the present arrangement with Surrey House as follows. When you use the club for lunch, please show the waiter your parking ticket and he will give you a voucher to the value of R10 which you must present to the Surrey House parking attendants when you leave the parking area. Please note that the R10 voucher will cover two hours of parking only. Any time over and above two hours will be for your own account. 

We have also had a rethink of the corporate membership that was previously on offer. If you or a colleague is interested in corporate membership, please give me a call and I will gladly explain the benefits and advantages that corporate membership of Rand Club will bring to their company. 

Until next time, take care and I look forward to seeing you in the club soon.

Parking in Surrey House is still available during lunchtime, for two hours only. Please show the waiter your parking ticket and he will give you a voucher to the value of R10 which you must present to the Surrey House parking attendants when you leave the parking area. Please note that the R10 voucher will cover two hours of parking only. Any time over and above two hours will be for your own account. 

This facility is for members only. There is additional parking within walking distance of the club at Beyers Naude Square & Gandhi Square, for members’ guests. 

Parking for special functions can be arranged through our Catering offices

MEMBERS POST,

MESSAGES & LIBRARY BOOKS

Members notice is drawn to the fact that all mail, newspapers, messages, periodicals etc, will in future be left in the alphabetical cubby holes beneath the main notice board. They will no longer be left at the Porters Lodge.

One of the Rand Club's favorite pictures, that of Annigoni’s Queen Elizabeth ll was destroyed in the fire of June 2005. Thanks to the generosity and efforts of member Dick Foxton, a superb new reproduction of the Annigoni was arranged through Buckingham Palace and Dick presented it to the Club.

The unveiling of the Annigoni portrait of Queen Elizabeth ll was done on 8 June with brief addresses by Chairman Peter Briggs, Dick Foxton and former Chairman Ivor Sander (on the history of the painting). The portrait now takes pride of place in the Milner Lounge.

Hello again,

Already we are halfway through the year and with all the promotions and specials your club is running its becoming an eventful year. On the odd occasion I receive a request for Guinea Fowl and every time without fail, we prepare it in a Smitain sauce, why, I have no idea. In years gone by the Guinea Fowl used were wild and usually obtained from a hunter. Today Guinea Fowl are semi-domesticated and are reared for the table. The best age for the bird is 8-9 weeks. At this stage it will be 1.2kg’s dressed weight, but has a much heavier bone structure than a chicken and much less meat content. A bird of this size will on be sufficient for 2 people. A recipe for Chicken and Pheasant would also suit Guinea Fowl.

Recipe

Breast of Guinea Fowl with Tomatoes and Spring Onions -4 portions

Guinea Fowl breast 4

Tomatoes 3

Spring Onion 2 bunches

Salt & Pepper To taste

Oil 2tsp

Butter 50g

Shallots finely chopped 2

Clove of garlic crushed ½

Dry white wine 120ml

Chicken stock 300ml

Tarragon leaves ½ tsp

chopped

Method

Remove skin and sinew from each breast. Blanche tomatoes, skin and de-seed, saving the skin and the seed for the sauce. Cut the flesh into small neat dice. Trim the spring onion of their roots and pull off any outer leaves. Cut off the white parts to about 4cm and discard the green tops. Blanche the onions in boiling salt water for 15 seconds, refresh and drain. Lightly season the breasts. Heat the oil and 15g of butter in a frying pan. When this is sizzling, place the breast in the sizzling oil and butter, skin side down, and fry gently for 5 minutes, browning lightly. Turn the breasts over and continue frying for a further 5 minutes. Once cooked, remove the breast from the pan and keep warm. Tip off the fat and add 15g of the butter and quickfry the onions, browning slightly. Remove from pan and keep warm. Add the chopped shallots and garlic and lightly fry for about 30 seconds. Pour in the white wine and add the tomato seeds and skin. Reduce the heat until the wine has almost evaporated, pour in the stock and reduce heat until only 300ml remains.

To serve – add juices that have run from the breast and the onions in an oven heated to 230?C for 2 minutes to re-heat. Strain the sauce through a muslin cloth onto the diced tomatoes and tarragon leaves. Bring sauce to the boil, remove from heat and add remaining butter, shaking the pan continuously until butter has melted. Slice breast into 5-6 thick slices. Spoon a little sauce onto the centre of each plate and arrange the sliced breast on top. Place 5 spring onions evenly around the sliced breast and spoon the remaining sauce over and around the Guinea Fowl.

Bon Appetit!

Your Chef,

Tom Couper

FRIDAY AUGUST 31st

THE MAIN DINING ROOM – 19.30 for 20.00

Jazz Sensation “ESTELLE KOKOT LIVE”

3 COURSE MEAL – Drinks Excluded

R250 per person

UK born South African singer, composer and pianist Estelle Kokot has played from the Jazz Clubs of South Africa to the Barbican and the Royal Festival Hall in London as well as various European Jazz Festivals. She’s also one of the first women to perform at Kippies Jazz Club at the Market Theatre Newtown, in the mid eighties.

Estelle made her debut with South African Jazz Super Group Phambili and went on to guest regularly with South African World Music Stars before joining Rush Hour in 1988. Not long after joining Rush Hour they finalised a record deal with Umkhonto, part of RPM. The album The Perfect Way, which Kokot co-wrote the title track with Avzal Ismail, is still available via Gallo Africa and has a few bonus tracks added.

The album topped the charts on Radio Stations in South Africa and there after they performed the Club and Concert circuits.

Estelle has also taught extensively in the jazz vocal field focusing her energies on production and song writing techniques and retained a post, in 1989, as vocal coach at The Pretoria Technikons Jazz Department for 5 years.

In 1990 Estelle went solo and did a variety of projects which included doing a daring bass and vocal duo with John Rautenbach called “No place to Hide.” Several full house runs at Kippies Jazz Club with Canadian Trumpeter Bruce Cassidy and South African Saxophonist Mike Makhalemele. Feature spots at five Big Band Jazz Galas at Pretoria’s State Theatre, and several guest spots with Barney Rachebane and Victor Ntoni at the A Train Jazz Club in Soweto.

In 1991 Estelle opened Kalk Bay Supper Club Theatre “Eauver (over) The Top” for proprietor and actor (7de Laan) Chris van Niekerk. He primarily created the venue around Estelle to showcase her dramatic and intense performances. The one woman show called ‘From the Blues to Brazil and Beyond ', was an intense and intimate evening with Estelle on piano and voice, taking the listener on a musical journey, singing certain standards in the Blues, Modern and Brazilian idiom as well as her own compositions.

In mid 1993 Estelle Kokot relocated to the United Kingdom to further her musical quest. She has since performed and played in many well known London and European Jazz Clubs and Festivals and is a well respected figure on the London Music Scene, not only as a musician in her own right, but also as an educator of music.

What started out as ‘From the Blues to Brazil and Beyond’ graduated to ‘Beyond Belief’ on a return visit to South Africa after relocating to London, the show toured South Africa for 3 years, receiving rave reviews and an opportunity to perform at the Grahamstown and Windybrow Arts Festivals in South Africa in 1993. ‘‘Beyond Belief’’ was also performed at the famous “Pizza Express Jazz Club” in Dean Street and at various other Jazz Clubs, Festivals and Theatres on the European circuit.

Estelle is now back in South Africa and is touring to promote her new album “Information”. This album has just been nominated for a 2007 South African Music Award (SAMA) in the category of Best Jazz Vocal album.

As Guy Henderson - Senior Vice President International of Sony ATV says: “Estelle is a world class pianist, singer and composer. She is totally unique and brings warmth and heart to her music that captures the imagination of all who hear her.”

It is with sadness that we report the death of one of our staff members Assistant Chef

Walter Makwarela

who passed away in May 2007

He will be greatly missed.

Clubs seem to attract people who become ‘characters’, and a body of anecdote has grown in the Rand Club about some of its own eccentric members, not all of them completely lovable people, but every one unusual in some way or another.

Captain ‘Boy’ Ironside was one of the clubs most controversial personalities. Captain Ironside was a man who lived at the club for many years but was always criticising it. He complained perpetually about the food, the service and the accommodation, and was known once to refer to the club as a ‘pot house’. During the racing season in Durban he stayed at the Durban Club.

He chose Kimberley club as his home club as (he pretended Rand Club was not up to his standards). In spite of this he lived in the club for over thirty years. At one time he distrusted the amenities of the kitchen so much that he had a standard arrangement with a farmer friend of his for a regular supply of fresh eggs, each one being stamped with the captain’s initials—so that there would be no mistake at table. Once, during the First World War, Captain Ironside told a German-speaking member of the club that he had an infernal cheek to use the club’s facilities. The poor man was so hurt he did not go near the club for years. 

This cantankerous, albeit colourful member had another eccentricity: he is said to have blackballed every proposed new member simply as a matter of course, perhaps of principle. He insisted on cleaning his own shoes and left instructions that when he died his body was to be used for medical purposes.

A story that he once performed an appendix operation on himself is fairly generally discounted. Yet there was a much softer side to the Captain. Over the years, and without fuss, he contributed handsomely to deserving charities, as well as performing other kindnesses to individuals.
