    13.42.........going for the Weins there or what?? Also those rootis are tasty but disappointingly they are not properly rolled and tucked so all the filling falls out when you eat it as is evident in your clip. The Cape Malays make fantastic food though, that's not even up for debate! I know you are a food channel but you missed out on a Cape Town phenomenon that is sliding under the radar at the present and that is one man coffee businesses that have been popping up since COVID, there are quite a few but the one I can really recommend you will find daily at the Ronderbosch Common from the crack of dawn till about 9.30-10. On the mountain side of the common by the parking lot, you cant miss him! Really good coffee, decent prices, friendly service and we talking about a guy who literally pulled himself out the mud and started a successful business doing what he loves! I will always support that kind of business. Thanks for the vid, keep up the great work man!

    don't know why all the foreigners decide to try all the wrong food prepared by the wrong people. at least you got the fish and chips right. you should return to South Africa and get somebody to take you to all the authentic eatery's., sorry you had to experience this kind of food.
