Those in search of authentic South African cuisine have to look harder for those few
establishments that specialise in it - like the justly famous Gramadoelas in central
Johannesburg, Wandie's Place in Soweto, the Africa Café in central Cape Town or

Or one can watch for glimmers of the real thing. There are varieties of biltong in
every café, in big cities and little dorps. Every weekend there wafts from
neighbourhoods rich and poor the smell of spicy sosaties being grilled over the braai.
Steak houses may specialise in flame-grilled aged sirloin, but they also offer
boerewors.
