The cuisine of South Africa is eclectic. Immigrants from India in the 1800's arrived in South Africa where many ingredients were not available, hence the emergence of curry-influenced South African cuisine. Today, with an influx of people from all over the world, almost every different cuisine is available. As a neighbor to Mozambique, Portuguese food (especially langoustines or huge prawns) have been a favorite for decades. So, when in South Africa, eat to your hearts desire! Casual dining, elegant dining, fast food, burgers, pizzas, scharwamas, curries, seafood and more - you name and it's available.
