- Hi Guys! In this video I'll be trying some of the most popular foods in Cape Town! We will be starting at the Eastern Food Bazaar and ending at Steelies, where I try Cape Town's signature sandwich.. The Gatsby! #capetown #southafrica
- บันเทิง
My mistake guys!! The dishes at the Eastern Food Bazaar are about double the price of what’s being shown in the video! I forgot the pricing and looked them up online but I think the menu is a little dated with pricing. Sorry!!
Eastern Bazaar 100% value for money
Value for money if you are not South African, but I'm glad you are enjoying yourself. We Capetonians would rather make our own foods it's much cheaper than buying.
Lol I was like this has to be an old video 😅 meal price R35😮... Their highest price range is R85-R95 and their food don't disappoint ❤❤❤❤
outdated online menus? You are in capetown for sure lol
Gatsby looked decent , however there is only one go to Gatsby and that's full house masala steak ! :)
No doubt my bru. Golden Plate Athlone had the best. Been in Durban for 13 years. I miss those full house gatsbys
I agree - Steak Masala Gatsby is the way to go. And Golden Dish, Athlone has the best IMO!
@@pierre2898unfortunately Golden Dish are temporarily closed due to being burnt😢
Eastern food bazaar
As a Pakistani I fully support love respect and support South Africa and its beautiful people from Pakistan 🙂. Best regards from Pakistan 🙂.
Love u too brother ❤
I rate your comment 9/11
The gatsby is the undisputed king of fast food in the Western Cape. Very difficult to replicate it at home that's why most people don't bother and that's why most buy it to enjoy that authentic taste. The best thing is you never get a gatsby for yourself cause it's a great meal with friends etc. Glad you enjoyed!
I can see why! It was so good! It definitely is way too big for one person to eat lol
I have to say I dislike the Gatsby and really don't know what the hype is about...I would much rather have a beautifully fresh cooked fish...my opinion! @@nicolemd33
We can add... you can get it on both ends of the spectrum. Your one you had in this vid leans more to the "gourmet" end. We can go the other way...much "cheaper"....and could possibly taste x1000 better than the one you had. I will state that I do enjoy the one you had...probably No2 on my list....
Cape Town is the most beautiful city in south africa
I highly recommend visiting Mariams in CBD, it wad my go too spot when working in Capetown, Food lovers market is a must also, the variety is just exquisite. I'll NEVER forget SA, was an experience of a lifetime!!!! ❤💯
How cool you got to spend so much time there while working! Next time I’m in Cape Town I’ll have to check those spots out!
Best gatsbys in Cape Town!
Mariams and the boerewors aunties stalls all on Heerengracht street
Mariams has the best Gatsby
You ate a half gatsby? That’s impressive lol
It was too good not to!
YOU RIGHT THATS VERY IMPRESSIVE! IT USUALLY TAKLES 3 - 4 PEOPLE TO FINISH ONE🤣 LOVE YOUR CONTENT! AND WELCOME TO CAPE TOWN🤗
@@gw2500 3-4 people on a half Gatsby ? Don't talk kak. A half Gatsby is for one person. A full Gatsby is for three people oubra.
@@sergioalbrecht298 I meant on a full gatsby not half a gatsby
@@gw2500 my bad , that's on me because I assumed. Just remember one person on a half Gatsby and maximum three people on a full Gatsby .
I'm so glad the presenter actually eats the food 😂
Love your content! Keep having fun making videos you and your man God bless you
Thanks for showcasing some authentic Cape Town (my hometown) food. There is SO much more to explore in CTN - not sure if there are follow-up videos (I'll check :)).
This was the perfect representation of our citys delicacies, Im glad you had a great experience.
Snoekies is definitely not the best fish & Chips. Next time u back try Fishhoek Fisheries or Kalkies.
Great video BTW 👏
also try the ocean basket ones
looks so yummy and delicious, beautiful sceneric views, mountains, beach table mountains, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching❤
Nice Video, My Home Town, glad u had a taste of the Cape Hospitality
Thank you❤
Eastern Basaar's Masala Dosa is my favorite. Nice vibe and brilliant food at this place.
Enjoyed how you enjoyed Cape Towns food. There is much more to try...
What would you suggest for other dishes?
I love how you described all the food. It's exactly the way you described it. My opinion. ❤
Thank you!! :)
Very nice. The fish and chips look good. That is one giant sandwich. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for visiting the Mother City ❤!!! Really enjoyed your content! Loved the Lil bit of lettuce comment at the end😂😂😂
You've missed out on the best part of South African cuisine, which is Potjiekos and BRAAI! American BBQ does not compare. Oh, and the best gatsby in CPT is the full house masala steak gatsby. To die for. Great video, thanks for represent my city so nicely. 🎉
Im so glad you went to Eastern Food Bazaar. It's around the corner from my campus, I always go for their chicken fried rice.
Glad you enjoyed your stay, CPT is really beautiful
Thank you for visiting our beautiful Mother City Cape Town❤🇿🇦
Hi There,
Awesome food review and thank you for visiting our beautiful Mother City.
You ate everything that makes you one of us LOL.
Really entertaining to watch.
keep up the good work.
Stay awesome.
Aww thanks so much! Glad you liked the video!
Supper presentation.i love cape town
Thank you❤ definitely a special city
Not"supper". It's "super".😅
OMG! I have to comment right now! I'm just about half way through and I have to say those fish and chips look better than the UK! I'm American living in the UK 11 years now! A foodie too and love fish and chips. They look amazing! But I guess I have to wait for you guys to actually taste it first... I got too impatient once the guy served it from those gynormous paper bags! I began typing away. too soon.Okay, let's see how it is... Those big bags of fried fish! My mouth is watering yo! How was it? Prawn and chips looked bad A$$ too! You did a great job on thid video. totally imfomative but laid back casual.you keep keepin on!
That’s so cool you’ve been living in the UK for so long! My boyfriend is from London and says he liked the fish and chips at snoekies the best! The prawns were, in my opinion, the same level of goodness as the fish and chips!
Our other local fish is hake, which is more like the UK fish. Snoek is a game fish... dryer texture and several large bones, but very flavourful.
You made the right choice to experience the more local choice!
Thank you so much for the comparison between beef Jerky and Biltong 😂 I always wondered how different they were, but was pretty sure biltong would beat it. It's literally the best 😅😂
Welcome to South africa. It's great to have you here, my lady. Plus, your looks blend very well with the locals who are cape Malays.😊
Visiting Capetown for the first time in April..I'm beyond excited
Omg how exciting! Have a fun time!!
Omg how exciting! Have a fun time!
Wow thats great
Thank you for showcasing our beautiful City 🍉
It’s definitely beautiful❤
Thanks for displaying the "Free Gaza and Palestine" artworks as well, much appreciated. I am proud to be from Cape Town, South Africa. Great clip by the way 😊
I get why you’re proud! Walking into some restaurants and seeing the managers and waiters wearing free Palestine shirts was awesome! So much support coming from SA
Thanks for this Nicole. When you have time again, just drive further up that road in Bo-kaap to Astana street. You will now see the famous new Palestinian flag painted on a whole block of buildings/flats. I hope you have a great time in SA@@nicolemd33
I stand with isreal
Im from South Africa❤
@@Torolsksame❤
Then you support a Genocide and Apartheid my friend. Please do your research back to 1917 Balfour's declaration + the fact that Israel bombed Gaza 2 weeks before Oct 7th + shot at Gazans on 4th Oct...so if you still believe this whole 75 years of Apartheid still only started on 7th Oct then all the best if you think Apartheid is the correct way of life. I hope you also know the real semites in Israel are the Palestinians as well with most of the Jews being from Europe? But all the best 😅
Eastern Food Bazaar has the yummiest food❤.
Golden Dish's Masala Steak Gatsby with a Cabana juice of choice is highly recommended.
You had to try the masala steak gatsby... The best ever😍
Snoek can be kinda hit-or-miss, depending on who prepares it (sorry, mom, I don't like your snoek). You can't go wrong with hake though. Hake and chips are the best.
Haha good to know! We did go back and I got it again with snoek but I should have got hake to see the difference
Snoek all the way@@nicolemd33
@@nicolemd33Snoek is definitely the way to go, Hake is basically like cod, tasteless.. Hake flavour just come from the spices that’s added to the batter. You get Snoek outside Cape Town, it’s called barracuda, but most places don’t serve it outside South Africa because of all the bones, apart from the bones I think it’s one of the best tasting fish you can get. You should definitely try Red Roman fish if you still in the Cape Town area, it’s quite rare to find it but if you manage I guarantee you will love it!m
@@silvertongue3003 omg! That’s wild it’s barracuda!! I did not know that
Cape Town does have really good food. I had really good chicken by Taste and Fixate at a friend's party. Yoooo that taste is engraved on my mind
Welcome hope you visit the Garden Route as well.
Ohhh I’ll have to! Thanks!
If ever you want to upset a South African, then suggest biltong to be beef jerky. Glad you corrected yourself lol. Great vid, enjoyed it.
Hahaha I can see why. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Hi Nicole thanks for the review loved it. FYI gatsby is like a daily snack for us capetonians 🤣 we need big calorie intake otherwise nobody is gonna be visiting any doctors anytime soon . 🤣🤣🤣 Who cares about calories we only live once so we make the best of it 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Yoh smaak snoekies don't slap! Next time Marine Whalf or fish on the rocks and a gatbsy in stellies. OKay! Im so happy you guys liked everything. Aneesa or cozy corner for tha gatsby needs.
nothing beats a gatsby ,will be my fav forever
We dont honk here lol we hoot and put in the groceries in the boot. What do you think of our biltong is it like your beef jerky
I couldve done a walking food tour with you, you got to see some of the good food.
hi there, love the video but there's a few other places you should have tried as well. to name just a few..... 'cape to curry' u should try "the thing", "golden dish" for a salomie and sunrise in mowbray for a variety of roti gatsbys. enjoy
Okay I’m adding all these to my list! Thank you! A lot of people are saying to go to golden dish so I’m curious how that gatsby will taste!
i watch many vlogs, but i loved your vlog
Thank you❤
you can get around CT without a rental car, do the local taxis or uber. Or even the public busses. I have done CT 4 times (3 months the first trip) w no car and been to Stellenbosch, Hout Bay, Constantia, Simon's town multiple times no problem.
Oh wow, that’s great!!
Yeah but the local taxis is not really an enjoyable experience. I would not recommend especially if you're with a female.
I went last week, they never disappoint.
Pretty cool. Just take care of your health out there. Heavy on the calories.
Beautiful brown bunny.
Love from South Africa Cape town
❤❤❤
Next time get hake and chips, white fish with no bones. Snookies is legit!
The Gatsby looked decent but it would recommend Karbros in Observatory in Cape Town😌
I’d definitely recommend you rather try out Fish On The Rocks for fish and chips (best hake everrrr) it’s just around the corner from Snoekies and I’d recommend a Cosy Corner or Continental full house Gatsby next time 😉
I’ll definitely add it to the list for when I come back! Thanks for the rec🤍
Glad you had Gatsby on the menu however I would've chosen a different place to get one, lastly did you eat all this in one day?
You should have the real koeksisters. They look like they are weaved, much better! 🔥
Thank you im a South African and love new food places you definitely earned my sub❤ ❤❤❤
Aww❤ I’m happy you enjoyed the video!❤️
Mine too.
Eastern bazaar... The Best. Their portion sizes are big
Try their chicken biryani Oooh lovely
Snoekies. Yum yum
Next time I’m there I’ll for sure have to try their chicken biryani!!
did she just call a gatsby a SANDWICH ?👁👄👁
Americans call anything with bread or rolls a sandwich even burgers that's what I have seen working in a hotel
R30 for 3 koeksisters? That's robbery
That's what you pay at restaurants but if you know an old aunty in any neighbourhood in Cape Town, you could get 10 for that price 😅
Koe;sisters or Koeksisters - both exist and they are very different. The on the video is the former
Epic I’m from Cape Town lived here my whole life. It’s pronounced Cook Sister by the way lol I’m sure every South African had a laugh there 😂
These were Koesusters, not Koeksisters
The reason why you hear so much honking is because the minibus taxis use it as a means to communicate to potential passengers that they have open seats and they also ride fixed routes.
Makes a lot more sense!
THANK YOU N GOD BLESS. OUR MOTHER LAND. UUUURRAAA. 1❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You redeemed yourself when you said biltongs nothing like beef jerky.😂
Wow this girl can pack food away
I live in South Africa, Capetown 🇿🇦🇿🇦
You must go to Newcastle in South Africa
You should've gone to the home of the Gatsby, Super Fisheries in Athlone. Next time you come, you guys must visit.
Yesss! Definitely will!
Is Golden Plate still open in Athlone? I have been in DBN for 13 years and miss a good Gatsby
@pierre2898 No, Mnr, golden dish, still going strong, I haven't seen Golden plate, now you making worry. Hehehehehehe
The people eating and fanning themselves while you explain how spicy the food is took me out 😂
Hahaa I didn’t even notice that! Just went back and watched😂
❤
03:59 Damn, that's impressive that a business in the CBD would charge such a low price for that dish. I mean, it must be extremely cheap for US tourists, but it's very reasonable for locals too.
I think she got her prices mixed up a bit. It’s between R60 - R80 for those meals
My mistake! I had forgotten the price so I looked online at their menu and I thought it seemed cheap as well. Maybe it’s not updated. I’m sorry guys!!
jirre - daai isse gimba gatsby !
try walking around in Johannesburg cbd with your phone 😉
the best gatsby the king of all gatsbys you'll get at The Golden Dish
I’ll for sure go there next time in there!
CAPE TOWN ROCKS❤
Yes it does:)
I don’t blame the honking, I’m Capetonian and the people react extremely slowly to a green light especially if the light indicates left or right.
You in thw home country of nandos. Give it a try.
If u do Durban. Mutton bunny chow
I’m in love with nandos!
We did go to Durban for bunny chow and it’s sooo good!
No no no, how can that be a bee-sting if there’s not honey and nuts on top of it, that place was obviously trying to be different. A proper Cape Town bee-sting is the crispy donut roll with cream and custard inside and then honey and nuts on top finished off with a dusting of powdered sugar
Location and name of a good place please
Sorry the best gatsby is golden dish! You should give that a try
❤ Im hankering for a bunny right now 😅
I hope you can be invited to a BRAAI. Someone invite this lady to a Braai please🙂🙏🏼
next time u come to RSA u must try get GEEL VET BILTONG
Oh yeah, you went to Snoekies in Hout Bay. The best to eat fish and chips❤.
BEAUTY. HOW DO I GET A RENTEL IF I DONT KNOW THE LAND
Cosy Corner Wynberg or Super Fisheries Athlone have the best gatsbys in Cape Town period.
Note: when trying Indian food in south Africa. Look for south african Indian instead of Eastern Indian.. Big difference
Ja i don't think you will eat a whole Gatsby by yourself. Its way to big. Myself and my colleague buy a Gatsby every Friday night while on nightshift and we shared it. Enough to take both of us into the morning hours. Biltong, Koeksisters and Melktert are traditional South African foods. Explore and enjoy!
Haha I definitely couldn’t eat the whole thing. I just ate half. You’re definitely right about having to split it!
This looks way better than the earthy shakes you and your mom make at home .😂
😂😂😂 hey… spirulina smoothies taste good!!!
Hey .. Should get Hake not Snoek .... Lol but most prefer snoek i just prefer Hake skip the bones and taste much better
"Thanks For Sharing.Next 'Time' Please 'Showcase' Die 'Barakat'"
Nobody is suprised that the gatsby is your favourite, jy is n regte coloured goose 😅
Not a Sandwich.. ITS A GATSBY 😊😊😊
True!! Calling it a sandwich is going it a major disservice
Supppper capetonians & Supppper food
Come to Durban for a more authentic Indian cuisine.
Does our biltong taste like salami🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣try Gemsbok biltong
Hahaha it’s a million times better
R35 does not sound right. it looks more like R120. please share the receipt. I'm so curious.
It was more expensive. I completely forgot the prices so I checked the menu online and I believe that one is old. It’s about double the price at eastern food bazaar!
can't believe how expensive CT food has become
Nicole its a Gatsby lovey not a sandwich lol nice video
Very true! My mistake!
It's so bad that you didn't find African food in africa
SAY IT LIKE COOK SISTERS
