Kalky's - best fish & chips in South Africa?

Take a guess how many tonnes of potatoes, snoek, and calamari Kalky's uses every week! Drop a comment!
Mr Kalky, Manager George Mandalios, is a familiar face in Kalk Bay. He chats to David about this harbour-side fish & chips spot in the Cape, a place that is nostalgic for many, a place where you often have to fight with a seagull over a piece of fish.

Kalkys is a absolute must to go to and all their food is fantastic and consistant. George is one of a kind. He's a walking encyclopedia when it comes to fish and fishing and not shy to share his knowledge. Extremely humble gentleman!!!!!!!!!

This was beautiful. It goes to show how humble South Africans are. Our icons include Table Mountain and a fish n chips shop.
