About Ask Ashe

About Ask Ashe
Brand Consultant + Editor

I’m Nicola Ashe - ad exec turned brand consultant, who quit the rat race in 2014, so I could finally breathe again. I live in Durban, South Africa with my husband and 4 rescue dogs and run Ask Ashe as a brand consulting business, helping people create and curate their own brands. But it's also my little space on the web, where I've shared design, decor, food, travel or lifestyle snippets since 2009.

  • Celebrating garden day with a throwback to a beautiful walk along the boomslang walkway at @kirstenbosch.garden.official - this sculptural raised walkway was inspired by a snake skeleton and a walk along it carries you above the treetops below - a must if you’re ever in Cape Town. . . . #gardendaysa #gardenday #askashe_travel #boomslang #walkway #kirstenbosch #kirstenboschgardens #kirstenboschbotanicalgardens #treecanopy #travelsouthafrica #capetown #discovercapetown
  • I’ll let you know...
  • When I lived in London, Tetley Tea was huge and I loved their tv ads - “that’s better, that’s Tetley” - which has always stuck with me. So when I saw Tetley in SA and was introduced to their Green Tea variants, that heritage reinforced for me that their tea was good, but then I tasted it and I was hooked. . Now you can buy it online and have it delivered straight to your door in SA! 🚛 . Joekels, the company that brought it into SA have just launched their online store and along with all the Tetley variants, you can also buy SA brand, Laager Rooibos and their new Society Coffee cappuccino sachets. . Not much I love more than online shopping these days - oh my word malls are so last season🤣 so this is very exciting news.

  • Look who got SO spoiled! Sporting their spiffy new collars from @chommiescom (and posing for their lives while I dangle treats above their heads🤣) - Rosie and Adler looking like designer rescues🖤 . Axel and Izzy will have to wait their turn - it’s pricey having 4 dogs 🙈 . . . . #chommies #chommies_dog #handmade #madeinsouthafrica #localza #lovelocalza #shoplocalza #dogcollar #localzadesign #rescues #rescuesofinstagram #askasheloves #doggo
  • My foodie travels around JHB were cut short after I picked up a bug and have spent the better part of the last 36 hours wo-man down. Feeling sick while being away from home is the worst and I cannot wait to be back in my own bed! . Could’ve mowed my way through the menu at @craftrestaurant had I not been ill - definitely recommend their baked pasta which @edge_davis polished off in about 5 mins it was so good. . Craft is on 4th Avenue in Parkhurst which is packed with great restaurants and definitely worth a visit if you’re in JHB - we stayed in an @Airbnb nearby so could walk there during the day but it’s best to Uber at night. . I have an Airbnb code for first time users if you’ve never used it before - just DM me and will send it to you. Sign up through the link and you’ll get R600 off your first booking 🙌 . . . #askashe_eats #joburgfoodie #joburgrestaurants #craftrestaurant #parkhurst #airbnb #airbnbcoupon #askashe_travel #craftparkhurst #discoverjoburg #southafricanfoodies
  • Cutest coffee shop in Parkhurst - @bloomcoffeeza - with the most incredible ceiling - hundreds if not thousands of dowel rods suspended from the ceiling at different heights to create this wave on the ceiling - I was mesmerised! Food and service was great too - plus delicious coffee which we’re bringing home as they sell the beans. . . . #joburgcoffee #joburgfoodie #bloomcoffee #bloomcoffeeza #amazingceiling #teal #coffeeshop #lookup #askashe_eats #southafricanfoodies #discoverjoburg #askashe_travel
