The best Chakalaka I've ever had came from a street stall, not a restaurant. The spiced and savoury intensity was completely different — more direct and uncompromised. dried biltong was used without hesitation, the way it should be.

the braai is a cross-cultural South African institution that transcends racial and social divides. The a weekend braai setting meant eating standing up or on a low stool, which is how this food is supposed to be encountered. Castle Lager was sold right next to it. Don't wait to find the 'right' restaurant. Find the street version first.
