After seeing it featured on the Netflix series "Chef's Table", my mom and I visited Scott's Barbecue in Hemingway, South Carolina.

Thorsten, Gail, and I had an early dinner and milkshakes at the Pure and Cool roadhouse in Malvern, on the east side of downtown Joburg.

Vice, a coffee shop next to the CNR Cafe in Craighall Park, serves single-origin Mexican coffee and an interesting smorgasbord of foods.

Thorsten and I journeyed to Uncle Harry's Roadhouse in Randfontein, where I ordered and ate an insanely enormous burger.

Thorsten and I went for dinner at Johnny Guitar Drive-in, a Roadhouse in Alberton. We had a great time, despite the power outage.

Lots of people have been asking for suggestions on where to eat outside in Joburg. Blind Tiger in Parkview has the perfect restaurant garden.

We went for a Valentine's dinner at the Fireplace Roadhouse in Boksburg and it couldn't have been any more perfect.

I'm fascinated by South African roadhouses, the equivalent of U.S. drive-ins. My first roadhouse blog feature is the Lollipop in Pretoria.

I had lunch at Anong Thai in Cyrildene and it was the best Thai meal I've had since I moved to Johannesburg.

Today, restaurants around South Africa spoke out about the damage to their industry by putting their tables out onto the street.

We're nearly 70 days into lockdown and my question is: What next? How do we keep on living in this weird state of limbo? I don't have the answer.

It's Day 62 of the South African lockdown, but who cares because I ate the most delicious version of chicken and waffles from a Melville cafe.
