Authentic African Food

For an authentic African Dining Experience visit MOYO restaurants all over the country.

African food is colourful, interesting and alien to most visitors. A well-prepared local meal can be a highlight of your trip to South Africa. Many restaurants specialise in the cuisine of the continent and serve a good variety of traditional African dishes. The indigenous delicacies include foods such as biltong (dried, salted meat), bobotie (a more exciting version of Shepherd’s pie), ‘mieliepap’ (a maize and meal porridge), boerewors (hand-made spicy farm sausages) & ‘braai’ (meaning barbecue). Vegetables usually accompany meat cooked in a ‘potjie pot’. Chakalaka is a favourite dish of the foreign tourist, a vegetable stir-fry which is served with roasted meat. Seafood is legendary, and is best sampled at one of the West Coast’s open air restaurants. As well as mussels, fish stew, grilled fish and lobster, you may be offered pickled fish – a well-loved dish which you’ll also find in some traditional Cape Malay restaurants.
