Eating and almost being: Food.

On our final weekend here in Jo'burg, one of our co-workers at Bara took us to Neighborgoods market where there were tons of food vendors with tons of different types of food and a couple of clothing and jewelry booths. We ate our fair share of lots of delish food: chocolate crepes, spicy chicken rolls, samoosas (fried bread with different foods in the middle, ours were cheese and corn), butternut squash pumpkin quiche, Thai chicken meat pie, and Jamaican jerk sandwich. All was amazing, and split between us needless to say.

We then took an adventure through a VERY comprehensive beer tour at SAB World of Beer through the history of beer and the current brewing process. Very informative, very yummy.


Today we hired a car! Emily was a great manual driver even on the other side of the road. It was a successful day without getting too lost, hitting anyone or anything! We made out way to the Rhino & Lion Park to see a very small enclosure of cats! We got to see them being fed because it is such a small enclosure that they cannot hunt for themselves... cheating, maybe but we're glad that we finally got to see some cats. 


We also hit up another section of the park were we got to pet/play with the white tiger and white lion cubs! It turns out that tiger cubs are way more playful than lion cubs...

We then traveled over to Carnivore restaurant and had our fill of chicken, beef, pork, beef sausage, pork sausage, chicken liver, crocodile, kudu, zebra, ostrich, and impala meat. With lemon cheesecake and malva pudding (SA tradition, chocolate cake with pudding on top) to top it all off. We were so stuffed after two days of delicious, adventurous eating! I say, way to end it off right!
