Went to Cape Town for a hockey tour in 2003, loved the place, haven't been to many friendlier cities. Advice above is good though, don't go out alone after dark, don't flaunt wealth in public, don't look like a bloody tourist. I loved the place and would happily have spent more than two weeks there, especially as I struck up a friendship with a delightful young lass a couple of days before flying back to Europe. As far as I remember it was very cheap to eat, even the top restaurants don't worry about dress codes as long as you are clean and presentable.
