In Desember 1994, het Rudi en Helga van Wyk die \u201cDie Padstal\u201d geopen op die perseel waar hulle vandag nog ge-le\u00eb is. Aanvanklik het hulle veral gefokus op hul bakkery-afdeling en het hulle die plaaslike gemeenskap van heerlike vars brood, asook ander plaasvars items soos groente en konfyt voorsien – alles wat \u2019n mens by \u2019n tradisionele padstal te wagte sou wees. <\/p>\n

Hulle het klein en eenvoudig begin uitbrei met tweedehandse meubels van ander plase en winkels in die omgewing. <\/p>\n

Bykans drie dekades later kan besoekers nie anders as om die geskiedenis van die omgewing in hierdie plek te ervaar nie. \u2019n Mens verwag telkens dat \u2019n plaastannie met haar voorskoot agter die antieke toonbank te voorskyn sal kom. Stap jy \u2019n bietjie verder in, na die geskenke- en restaurantafdeling van die gebou, is \u2019n hele ander w\u00eareld jou egter te wagte. <\/p>\n

Soos die jare aanstap, het die Van Wyks besef dat daar \u2019n aanvraag is vir \u2019n koffiewinkel, en later \u2019n restaurant. Hulle het besluit om die bakkery te verklein en die spasie te benut om nog mense te kan bedien. Soos wat hulle besiger geword het, het die padstal amper organies ontwikkel na \u2019n volskaalse gelisensie\u00ebrde restaurant en funksie-lokaal.<\/p>\n

Verskillende vertrekke, elk met eie tema<\/p>\n

Daar is verskillende vertrekke, elkeen met sy eie unieke tema. Tog is die style enders – soos verskillende skilderye van dieselfde kunstenaar. <\/p>\n

Die klavierkamer was eerste daar. Dit is heerlik luuks met dik matte, \u2019n kaggel en natuurlik, \u2019n klavier in die middel van die vertrek. Hangende kandelare en prentjiemooi muurpapier bring al die elemente soos \u2019n simfonie bymekaar. <\/p>\n

Na die klavierkamer het hulle besluit om nog \u2019n vertrek in te ruim vir gaste, as \u2019n plek waar gaste kan wag vir \u2019n tafel om oop te gaan in die klavierkamer. Die wynkamer het toe ontstaan en vinnig ontwikkel in \u2019n volwaardige deel van die restaurant, waar mense lekker kan sit en eet. <\/p>\n

Di\u00e9 vertrek bevat rakke vol wyn, vir almal van die wynkenner tot diegene wat net wyn drink vir die lekkerte. Alles is pragtig uitgestal, van die wyn tot die skilderye wat die mure volhang. \u2019n Tradisionele portret van een van Helga se grootouers hou \u2019n wakende oog oor die insittendes van hierdie area, met strelende agtergrondmusiek wat jou sintuie verder betower. <\/p>\n

Die fluweelkamer is later van tyd ingerig as \u2019n area vir privaatfunksies, waar besighede konferensies kan hou, of verjaarsdagetes in vrede kan plaasvind. Dit is, soos wat die naam voorstel, net so weelderig soos die res van die vertrekke. <\/p>\n

Buite is \u2019n pragtige piazza, kompleet met fontein en leiklipvloere vir diegene wat pragtige groen tuine en vars lug geniet. <\/p>\n

Ontdek in elke hoekie iets nuuts<\/p>\n

Saam met die ontwikkeling van die restaurant, het hulle ook begin om allerlei interessante geskenke te ver-koop. Die geskenkekamer is die eerste vertrek wat jy kan sien na die padstalgedeelte. Dit is \u2019n mekka van inte-ressanthede, oudhede, lekkerruikgoed, klere en soveel meer. Dit is ver-sier met swaar tekstiele, oorgroot meubels, warm, dramatiese drape-rings, en hangende kristalkandelare. Gaste word voorwaar op \u2019n reis ge-neem en kan verseker wees dat hulle in elke hoekie iets nuuts sal ontdek. <\/p>\n

Die hedendaagse naam – Le Chameleon- het ontstaan uit juis d\u00edt: Die behoefte om altyd innoverend te wees. Die winkel se slagspreuk, \u201cEver changing\u201d, bevestig dit. <\/p>\n

\n
\"Le<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Volgens Rudi, is hulle mense wat graag reis en bring dan invloede van dwarsoor die w\u00eareld terug na hulle winkel. Al die geskenke word deur Helga persoonlik gekies en weerspie\u00ebl iets van haar persoonlikheid. <\/p>\n

\u201cAs \u2019n mens nie self van iets hou nie gaan jy dit moeilik aan iemand anders verkoop. Dit is baie belangrik dat so \u2019n besigheid iets van jouself in het, sodat jy dit ook kan geniet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Geniet Le Chameleon se eie koffie<\/p>\n

Omdat Rudi \u2019n koffiekenner en \u2013fanatikus is met professionele barista opleiding, is die standaard van die koffie wat hulle bied vir hom baie belang-rik. Dus, het hy \u2019n jaar lank met koffie ge-eksperimenteer tot hy die perfekte mengsel van koffiebone gekry het. Hy rooster daagliks vars koffie vir die winkel, en verpak en verkoop selfs hulle eie koffie, \u201cMonte Bello\u201d- wat vernoem is na die koshuis waar hy gewoon het terwyl hy op skool was. Dit sorg vir nog een van so baie persoonlike besonderhede wat hierdie winkel maak wat hy vandag is. <\/p>\n

Die Van Wyks besit en bestuur vandag \u2019n klein deeltjie van Humansdorp se erfenis. Mense kom van heinde en verre om di\u00e9 unieke onderneming te besoek- die besoekersboek wat in die klavierkamer te siene is, is telkens bewyse daarvan. Vele skoolkinders het al smiddae aan hulle reuse \u201cChelsea buns\u201d gesmul – \u2019n lekker herinnering uit my eie kinderdae. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
