I had yet another enjoyable visit to the Africa Café with Jeff, Lisa Glenn and Jon David Conolley. Lisa had a term break, and she flew down to visit Jon David (another Rotary scholar from Birmingham) and to see more of Cape Town. I think everyone who visits Cape Town should visit the Africa Café, so I invited them to join Jeff and me one night while we were down there.
We had (in no particular order):
Egyptian koshery – brown rice, lentils and noodles with tomato gravy
Chilli chicken, peanut and fresh coriander salad
Mango chicken
Xhosa imifino patties – spinach and mealie meal patties
East African mchicha wa nazi – spinach, groundnuts and coconut milk
Umbhako – Xhosa pot bread
Malawi mbatata, cheese and sim sim balls
Ehtiopian sik sik wat – lamb cooked in a traditional berbere-paprika sauce
Dhania dip – tomato, coriander and chilli dip
Spiced chickpea patties
Ethiopian iab – white curd cheese with fresh herbs
Basmatic rice
Zambian bean pies
Sweet puff pastry for dessert
