AFRICAN POTJIE KOS

Originated from South Africa, a dish prepared in a large, black three-legged cast iron pot that is placed on an open fire. Ingredients in this pot can be meat-based or chicken-based with vegetables.

KAPANA



Food plays a very big part in all cultures in the world and for Namibia it is no exception. However it is bit more complicated when it comes to Namibia; as it hosts eleven different ethnic groups; hence one particular dish cannot be singled out ; rather the most  favored  and dishes with influence from countries like South Africa.

This local delicacy is like a street snack and is one of the best food.It is red meat barbecued in the open-air and sold at the market in Namibia's township. Some might say but is that not like 'braaivleis'( barbecue) because this is prepared in a different matter, men from the townships take the time everyday cut meat into small pieces and serves it with peppers, onions,chillies and sauces. If you want to experience a real African-Food Delight, try Kapana.......!!!!
