Personally I'm in Durban and I never in my life ate anything on that menu, maybe others have

I just eat "normal" food, not the crap that people "claim" to like <

What about Beaconsfield?

Don't worry,I'm taking my phrase book with me.
Malay Chicken and King Klip is new to me,surely that's a know dish

was just going to recommend the cape malay curry but i would really like to try is the afr volcano peri wings (tu) i see they are missing a lekker ribbetjie

No boerewors roll??

Looks a splendid (if not completely SA) menu. The Springbok fillet, the bobotie and the malay curry all lekkrr

Not a uniquely SA Menu, imho.

The two boboties, the Cape Malay Currie and the pan seared Springbok are traditional SA dishes. I would probably order the currie, as I spoke to one of our forumites over there yesterday and it was apparently very cold.

The boboties are splendid, if you like a fruity chutney type taste.

If I was homesick, I would definitely eat the Bobotie or the Springbok fillet.

Agree with othrs not really a true SA menu, but will certainly do the trick in your neck of the woods Dave
