From Cameroonian grilled fish and Soweto-style chisa nyama to Ethiopian injeera with delicious vegetarian stews, there's plenty of African food to be found. It's not a strict definition as there's a lot of African-influenced food too, whether it's the Indian curries influenced by local cooking styles or Mozambican-style Portuguese food. For cuisine-focused walking tours see Dlala Nje (Yeoville and Hillbrow) and Ancient Secrets (Fordsburg, Ethiopian Quarter, Mayfair) in Tours.
