The surroundings and interior of this canteen-style place might not look too convincing but trust me: You got to eat at the Eastern Food Bazaar when you are in Cape Town. This is where you'll find authentic "South African" Indian and Chinese food – those foods that came here hundreds of years ago and got their own twist by the locals. So dig into Biriyani or Shawarma and try the mango lassi! Oh, did I mention that it's super affordable as well? Since Cape Town downtown can become a bit shady afer working hours, I'd recommend you come here for lunch and during the work week instead of after hours and on a weekend.
