HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 июн 2024
- Today we explore Cape Town, South Africa in search of its delicious traditional food and world famous wine region. We start off by trying staple food, milky white beer, a variety of wines and South Africa's unique cultural fusion foods.
Finally! Watching someone actually eat authentic South African food and beverages. Thank you for the upload
Thank you! im happy you liked it 🙏it was a great day
And can pronounce it right
It's all authentic really. Many different cultures and many different equally authentic dishes
He should of gone to "spur" it is my favorite place to go eat. And it's one of the most known restaurants in South Africa
Thank u
I am a South African, and never tasted umqombothi. But look at this guy❤️
Ha ha, working on the mines, it is a must. Hostels have a brewery on site brewing this beer. It is a taste to get used to but very filling.
We are so diverse, you can spend years here and never truly experience the food, I am literally talking as a South African who lives here... We have such a mish mash of cultures, even each major city has a favourite street food, e.g. Joburg Korta, Durban Bunny Chow and Cape Town Gatsby
Im brazillian and i wish i could go to south africa someday but for now i wanna go to sao tome and principe Wonderful place ngl
bunny chow dish is popular in durban south africa , gatsby(consists of a huge roll with french fries with either steak or chicken, egg and salads) is a cape town thing
No I,live in south Africa it everywhere
Gatsyby is definitely more popular than bunny chow in Cape Town.
@@santesia6222 We have something called Ak 47 here in joburg which is similar to the gatsby
Yes, Durban and most of Kwa Zulu Natal bunny chow is readily available. It also depends how spicy you want it. ☺️☺️
@@chappy7868 Fake gatsby.
Bunny Chow originated in Durban where South Africa's largest Indian population resides. The curries are way more spicier compared to the rest of South Africa, from my experience.
amazing thanks for the heads up, ill have to go try next time im back :)
Having a Bunny in Cape Town is just bread with meat sauce. Durban is the best place to go and have a Bunny Chow
Certainly is. Best Bunny Chow is from Durban. Used to love it when I went there. Mind you curry in Cape Town is excellent
@@AffinityAdventuredon't worry I am an white south African and I can not speak the click language you are not alone
It is similar in flavour and heat but i like how if i eat Bunny chow in durban how it does not give me heart burn. when it comes to flavour profile it's similar to what my family makes but eastern food bazaar doesnt come close to the taste.
Because she is from the Cape, don't know a "bunny chow". If from Kwa Zulu Natal, it is normal chow. You can't go without a bunny chow at least two to three times a month. Yummy!
100%
Um you supposed to eat bunny chow with your hands I’m pretty sure but I’m happy you enjoyed 😁
MQomboti traditional beer, you're right is like a porridge is like a porridge it is made from a porridge grain called Sogum.
his reactions are so pure aww 😭❤
Your wing lady was clueless, do better next time. So much more yummy food to try in S. A
Good food bro.. Be safe there... SOUTH AFRICA.....
Thank you, it was great! Looking forward to going back
thank you for explaining everything, was confused more than half the video but i did enjoy it.. cheers.
Bunny chow is popular in Durban
lol searched for tourists coming to south Africa to see what they have to say. I'm from Cape Town and I've never had any of that in my life except for the ostrich
Looks yummy 😋, thank you for showing the world about Cape Town Food
Chad Thomas you’re welcome! What’s your favourite from the list?
R50 for a bunny myyyyyy tjom that's a steal
Neh?!
I have never tried BunnyChow in all my years of living here, maybe I should
Amazing awesome video as always bother keep up the amazing awesome good work 😍
The best bunny chows are found in Durban 😁
The best curry is found in India
@@chappy7868 Depends on your preference. India has much greater variety but Durban curries are spicier and more flavorful imo
@@chappy7868 Durban has the largest Indian population outside of India, the food is heavily influenced by Indian culture.
I love you and this video you are the first tourist to acculy pronounce stuff right thank you also love how u had a Athuntic Jol(party or good party or good fun) with the Athuntic music
Edit:Ostrich is also amazing when cooked amazing also Chakalaka is also a spice that can be used in mince or meat it doesn't have to be a salad
Has anyone ever told you that you are very handsome 😍
Thank you 😊
Excellent, informative vid. Thanks!
Awesome! Im happy you liked the video!
Finally someone who tried proper proper south African foods!!
"Can't beat a Durban Curry" as we say. Thanks for sharing your experience)
Ill definitely have to get to Durban, thanks for watching!
@@AffinityAdventure KZN is the most ethically diverse and bio diverse places in SA. Hope you have a great time when you visit.
😃😃Nice..would like to try some of these someday
I always wanted to know more about Capetown. And finally we have someone taking us through the journey.. Great
We south Africans like it
You didn't have a gatsby which is a Cape Town staple - next time please :)
You have to eat that with your hands mate.
South Africa is nice place.
I live in south Africa 🇿🇦
Amazing! I want to go back
Bunny chow is the best hangover food!
Great Video...Michael😄❤️👌
thanks very much! Which food would you try?
Amazing
Capetown is a great place to see and experience the best wines and Amazing foods 😍
It’s made from sorghum. Sorghum fermented beer made by the Zulu people 🇿🇦
The Eastern food bizarre was like 500 meters from my college. I ate there everyday. Cheap and delicious food
South Africans eat bunny chow with their fingers. Most places you can order a full, half, or quarter bunny chow.
I was looking at the video and wondering why your SA guide did not tell you you need to eat it with your hands
Bunny chow. Lekkkkeerrr
So good! 🤤Do you prefer that or gatsby?
Yesss, what more can you ask for, my lovely place to visit my lovely food to have for the day to fill up your stomach with some delicacy ❤❤
Nice Video. When are you coming back??? I am glad to see you enjoyed the some of the South African dishes.
Thank you!
I was hoping to come back soon, but covid pushed me back another year or two i think
Omg 😳 I am obsessed ty to my friend from S.A who introduced me. 😜
Wow yummy😊😍🧡❤
Yum! Would you try bunny chow?
Yes michael 😊😍🧡
Definitely miss food from home having lived in the US for the past 22 years.
Malema say Hi to you Louise, 😅 We love you please come home sometime hey 😘
Malema se poes@@authorkrutani1747
I'm south african I'm clumsy to eat bunny chow. 😂😂
haha it is really messy!
I really wish you could've tried our amarula drink. It's a fruit cream liqueur.
hi michael go to kwa zulu natal try those foods then johannesburg lesotho youlle find out fine african food us south africans like pap
great thanks very much.
Ill add that to the list when I go back to SA :)
Eastern food bazaar bring me back I was there 2 times whae I was 5 and when I was 6 and the food stayed bussin
Been there before and the food is good
hope you tried umngqusho (samp & beans) ... very nice x
yes i did! it was so great to try the different varites of food!
It's called a bunny chow because that piece of bread on top of the bunny chow looks like a bunny tail. 😁
He forgot to say Boere and Koi food. The ones who build the city
What exactly do u define as khoi food?
@@julirose5078 Biltong and Braai with honey wine.
Cape Town is definitely not the place to get a bunny chow.. Durban China
😂😂😂 So true. It should be illegal to sell Bunny Chows outside of KZN 😅
Lol in my village they call that beer magao. It is sour milk and yeah you have to get useto it. But with some dishes like a nice chicken and pap it goes well
Bunny chow is everybody's favorite...
Have you been to the southern suburbs in cape town that's where the real foods are.
Eating a bunny with utensils 🤣 wtf is happening to the world.
i know right 🤣
although Peruvians eat cute guinea pigs 😳
Nice working style and i like ur video and appreciate ur effort, for uploading it. The background of the video is looking very nice. wish u all the best hope to see more good videos from your good self. Best regard
Once saw this video 😊
If you ever switch between traditional beer and normal beer, watch out! lol! For some reason drinking both gets you really drunk, really fast!
PS Come back to SA! It would be awesome to see videos from the coast and then inland. I unfortunately haven't traveled my country as much as I'd like, but everywhere I've been I've met the most awesome and welcoming people.
The Bunny Chow's name has Gujurati origins, apparently. It meant something completely different (maybe "bread curry" or something like that), and people misheard the name or made a joke out of it, even? Like how Hot Dog started out as a joke. I read the full details on the Internet once, but have lost the link. If yours was too mild for you, try the ones they have at *Some Like It Hot* in Hillcrest next time you're here. It's origins would've just been as a food portable enough to take to work, with the clever twist that you can eat the container.
Umqombothi is not a dairy product. It's sorghum beer, originally - with maize added later when that reached Southern Africa. It would probably be closer to what you know as "beer" if it was strained and clarified more, but it's "food beer", so the crushed grain is left in suspension. Maybe if there was a version which added hops it would be even closer to what's familiar. It's one of those things you have to give time to acclimatize to - just like you probably had to acclimatize to things like beer and wine when you were a youngster, and they still tasted horrible to you. Climate is the wrong word, but it'll do. Nice thing is that it's low alcohol. 2% or lower.
For a South African chain take-away that produces great food, try Nandos. Hot Peri Peri chicken (Portuguese), mild lemon chicken, all flame grilled, and no batter.
And then there's biltong ...
Another great video! Awesome to have met Tammy, new great friend and personal tour guide.;) Thanks Tammy! Great vibe and down to earth style! So much out there in the world to see and experience post COVID. Looking forward to your Europe and Canada videos. Great job!
Thanks very much! Yes it was so great meeting her :)
need to have an open mind when encountering south africa. it has a lot of european/british/dutch roots. The local african cuisine is an entire subject on it's own. this country is impossible to define.
very good point and makes it even more amazing to explore and try a bit of everything
What South African hasn’t had a bunny chow😳👀
The white capetonians
@@optoms1178 Most Capetonians.
@@lfk53 at least born and raised cape townians. Not so much those of us who moved here.
@@acelovesdiyschristopher7023 You're not Capetonian if you've moved to Cape Town.
@@lfk53 considering I've spent half my life here which is more than double my time in joburg that might not be completely accurate
Lmao oh snap, I got my phone stolen AND watched a fight outside the Eastern food bizaar some back in 2019 when I was looking for an apartment before moving from johannesburg to Cape Town... Also, it was my first time in Cape Town.... Lived there for a few years and loved it, might move back
Missed out on poitjie kos.
Thank you
Come to Jozi og
Great video! I live in Cape Town.You are handsome!😉😊
Thank you! Im happy you liked the video, I hope to come back.. Any must go places I missed?
@@AffinityAdventure Hi Michael.There are really too much to mention.Did you like Cape Town alot when you were over here?How is Canada?Is it snowing there?
@@shaiedadryden609 Yeah true! I definitely have to go back! Yes it is. About 30cm of snow covering everything!
@@AffinityAdventure In South Africa we never have snow.Canada seems like a beautiful country to live in too.May you see much more of South Africa if you come over here again.You sound like a very kind person.👍🌍🇿🇦
Normally you will find bunny chow in Natal .
😍
So cool
I’m from SA and Cape Town
Im a South African and going to Cape Town in July
Awesome! Have a great trip!
We have plenty of ostrich farms in North America, but the price of it is $20-30/lb.
Ohhh a lot.
In my country (Argentina) you can have one of best meats in the world (cow) from $3-7 USD per KG (2.2 lbs)
Even for us it's a little bit expensive because in my region we are full of cows so it's not the best price but for people from other countries it's almost free LOL
Id try the wine
i know you would! youd love the Stellenbosh Segwey wine tour!
Ive never seen anyone eat a Bunny Chow with a fork b4
whenever I see a "Bunny chow" outside of kzn...I am always like WTF is that....Some put fish and chips others have peas with a mild stew that many mistake for a curry....
What should be in it?
Beans..Either Sugar beans or Butter beans curry(I love butter beans),then we have the least popular Chicken curry bunny..and my favorite Mutton curry.also the Vegetable bunny for those who don't eat meat..
And I forgot to Mention the Prawn curry bunny.👌
Missing CT food, living in Cusco, Peru promoting responsible travel to the Peruvian Amazon - great joke about the guinea pigs & bunnies :)
🥪🌯🌮🥙I can see that your enjoying south African food .... I wonder how's like ...😂😂😂😂
Laughed too hard when he said Indian settlers
Gotta go to Durban for real bunny chow bra
Hey guys. You need to eat that with the your hands.
I used to live in Cape Town for like 4 years and then I moved to a different province
Oh cool! Any other South African food you’d like to see on this list?
Bunny chuw and umqombothi are South African food
African, Indian & Malay Foods.
What are your favourite?
I'VE BEEN TO EASTERN BIZARRE MANY TIMES BEFORE 💀💀highly recommend
Corrections in South Africa we call a ticket 🎫 slip
He said the Malay influence came when the Malay and Indian people settle settled here but it was more of them being enslaved and brought here
that dutch-looking woman at the start looks like she could beat the crap out of you :D
Not with the fork 😆
Ahh the bunny chow. I still to this day, wouldn’t be able to eat it. Also those caves are amazing. But, I’m not sure if I’d go in. How was it for you?
Why couldn’t you eat the bunny chow?
Yeah I love exploring caves like that, so fun 😊
@@AffinityAdventure I don’t think I’d be able to finish the bunny chow. I’d give it my best shot but I don’t think I’d finish 😂.
@@photography_with_lynsey5828 oh haha yeah, its way too much food. Eating a whole loaf a bread in one spot is so much
@@AffinityAdventure it did look lovely though.
The next time you visit Durban, visit Hollywood Bets. You can get a snack size bunny chow.
Michael you almost tasted South African food but you just went on the mountains you need to get down to the foundations of South Africa at KZN, Eastern Cape, Limpompo and met a real South African with real South African food and eat UMPHOKOQO, UMQA, UMFINO, UMGQUSHO, IBHANQA, AMACEBA, ULUSU, UMBENGO WEHAGU WENKOMO WEGUSHA and many more.
I agree going to Capetown means nothing
Confusing. Thanks.
Traditional beer you had is moonshine which makes whiskey not necessarily something different from what anyone knowns. Alcohol is standard anywhere in the world I guess.
Im not sure, any moonshine ive had has been distilled and clear. This was brewed
Its not moonshine
That place is the worst example of eating a bunny chow .. I’m Capetonian , believe me .. head to Bo Kaap and eat it there
Eating a bunny chow in Cape Town is like eating a spaghetti bolognaise in India. If you want a really good authentic bunny chow, you need to go to Durban.
Durban is a slum
@@itsyaboi2l2q That it may well be these days, but they still make the best bunny chows in the world.
@@SaxonGlory fair enough..good food
@@itsyaboi2l2q I spent many years in Durban back in the 70's and 80's so I grew up on lots of Indian food and bunny chows. I eventually became a chef in London and used to make authentic lamb and chicken bunny chows for friends on weekends. They were extremely popular with my mates but I learned how to make them in Durban.
@@SaxonGlory sounds great, wouldnt mind trying your food...and sorry about my initial comment, was in poor taste.
I'm from cape town it makes no sense that you tried a bunny cho in cape town but you didn't try a gatsby.
Bunny Chows are from Durban
Yeah for sure, i was trying to focus on foods from all over SA not just capetown.
I did have gatsby on the list actually but i was filming this in March 2020 over a couple days, then covid started and I had to fly out of africa ASAP as the president was closing down the border to flights.
I also had planned on going to a winery and an ostrich farm
Malay people you mention is mostly from indonesia
I just try to report on what locals tell me. But I do really enjoy Indonesian food!
But also mixed with South East Asian (Bengal, Indian, other asians), east African, and khoi roots. No single family tree is the same.
She never had bunny chow?😮
