The food is always good! It's basic food, but you can trust that it'll be good. Service is just okay. Not the most cosy place to eat in, but it's part of it I guess. Overall, I love going back there.

DELICIOUS! I had take aways, Mohodu, Moroho, Mokopu, chakalaka and Dombolo. Absolutely delicious. The meal portions are more than generous and the prices are very reasonable. Only problem I had was that they couldn't deliver to Claremont 😒. Other than that wow. It's near impossible to find quality traditional food in Cape Town. Definitely going back this week, the food is THAT GOOD

do you know that 49% of Syrian children in refugee camps have considered suicide? do you know that we are headed toward catastrophic climate change?

the world is a genuinely nightmarish place. there is ISIS and President Trump and yesterday evening I got two Whatsapp messages from my mother. the one informed me about water restrictions and the other warned me about about the violence my body brings. there are places in this country, unlawned, where there are no taps, there are places in this country where there are no safe spaces. everything hurts and it's getting worse all the time.

and even in our second circle the problems become more complex, they seem more unsolvable, and no one is exactly certain of what they deserve. it feels ostrich to try and remember the good things, but otherwise what is there to live for? we might as well kool-aid. we might as well not imagine a better world, pretend we can't afford a meal for the homeless guy outside Big Momma's. that's sadness' trick, you know. it makes you forget everything else. it leaves no space for hope, for love, for amazing dinners of chicken curry and fried spinach and pap at tiny restaurants in Obs. sadness obliterates the whole sky. so i'm trying to remember the blue. and green tea with just the right amount of sugar, and birdsong and mid-day breaks, my Politics research essay and memes. and being with you and you, the whole of you; all the things that make it worthwhile.

Price: It's cheap home made African food.

Size: Not a large menu and it is a small restaurant mainly providing take aways.

Culture:The guy taking orders is so friendly. The ladies cooking are a bit ignorent and lack customer care.

Taste: They offer both vegan and vegetarian home cooked food. I actually enjoyed the taste.

Experience: OK OK. If you sit outside, lots of beggars come to you and ask for food.

This is amazing, honestly. Best homemade "African style" cuisine ever. I would recommend chicken curry, tripe, creamy spinach, butternut, pap and samp&beans 💯 honestly had such a good time eating this, the price is amazing and the portion size is huge! Honestly it was such a good deal! It's also really clean in the restaurant and the only downside is that it's really hard to find parking.

Really great value for money. The store is a hidden gem in lower main💛. I had the steam bread and lamb curry, it's SO good! Will definitely be going back for more.

Very rad place in OBS it's like being part of the family when your food comes. Big portions, tasty and so well priced. Great for vegetarians and the meatlovers. Real African cuisine, more of a take away spot for me. But still lekker.
