Places to Eat

As there is an article on what to expect foodwise in South Africa, perhaps it might be appropriate to list some restaurants by city. This list will be a work in progress. Feel free to leave replies to this post with restaurant names, location, food type/style and comments on the place. Don't worry if you don't have contact details - if they can be found, they'll be added.

Meanwhile, here are a couple of places that might be worth considering

Johannesburg

• Smith & Wollensky in Sandton City and Eastgate Mall for that classy gentleman's club approach to carnivorous eating


• Col Cacchio in Bryanston for all things pizza


• Primi Piatti at Rosebank Mall or Rivonia Square for an 'international' menu for young trendy things


• JB Rivers in Hyde Park or JB's Corner in Melville Arch. International menu for not so young any more trendy things with young dependents


• Marcel's in Hyde Park (by the movies) for the smoothest tastiest frozen yoghurt


• Moyo at Zoo Lake, Market Theatre and Melrose Arch for African/International experience


• Europa in Parkhurst on 6th. Be seen

Cape Town
