Abessina

Enjoy Africa's tastiest national food at this colourful, friendly and cheap Ethiopian restaurant. Most meals are served on injera bread, a slightly sour and spongey pancake, with spicy vegetables and meat piled on top of it; these large dishes are shared and eaten by hand. It's best washed down with beer, or one of the South African wines on offer. Call in advance to book the fascinating Eritrean coffee ceremony.
