I recently became a member of the Rand Club, the historic (formerly mens- and whites-only) club in downtown Joburg.

We took a food tour through Alexandra Township and learned lots of new things, including about a new "Mexi-kasi" restaurant there.

Thorsten and I recently stumbled upon King Arabic Sandwich -- a Palestinian restaurant that used to be in Mayfair -- in Roodepoort.

Westdene, like neighboring Brixton, is a super cool Joburg neighborhood with very few restaurants. So I was excited to hear about Emzini'.

Ludwig's Roses, a massive rose farm just north of Pretoria, is a delightful place to spend an afternoon sniffing flowers.

Thorsten and I went to Mustardbox 713 to try Korean corn dogs for the first time. It was a culinary awakening for us both.

Thorsten and I journeyed to Fourways for dinner at Roasty's Roadhouse, which opened about a year ago. Roasty's was delightful.

Thorsten and I bought bagels from Bird's Bagels in Blairgowrie for breakfast on Sunday. The bagels were fantastic.

I made a quick lunch run to Senhor Galo's, a brand-new roadhouse in an industrial section of Edenvale serving tasty Portuguese food.

Who knew Fordsburg has a dive bar? Archie's Pub & Grill, on the aptly named Lover's Walk, is one of Fordsburg's best kept secrets.

Pandemic dining is stressful, and sadly that's not going to change anytime soon. Here are 5 local places where I feel comfortable eating.

Last month Thorsten and I went for dinner at the Burger Box Roadhouse in Krugersdorp. True to its name, the burgers were delicious.
