Durban Dish

For the sake of consistency, I agree with Glynis. Having been to this restaurant I am not surprised by her review. Although I decided to avoid the bunny chow myself, I opted for a curry which was less than satisfactory. On top of the poor food, the meals were quite small, not that Id expected a large African meal, but none the less. No atmosphere, perhaps they could vibe it up a bit with some southafrican music and more heart!

I hate to kick a restaurant when it’s down but this place is really miserable. Amongst the myriad of problems is the air conditioning, they have a portable air conditioner which kicks in and out and they stick the 20 cm hoses out of a window or door o get rid of the condensation.
The restaurant seems to be run by an old lady and a young girl, I don’t know who’s out in the kitchen because I never saw anybody but there must be someone out there.
They’re Indian but cook ‘South African food’, which is all Indian curries which I find hard to believe as I have a lot of relatives in South Africa.
They have a very small menu and try very hard but I won’t be going back. The small menu became even smaller when four of us turned up to try the restaurant because someone obviously hadn’t bought the raw ingredients that day.
They serve ‘bunny chow’ which is a famous dish in South Africa and was popular the night I went — there were six other diners besides my group and I would say half of us had the bunny chow.
They have a small choice of drinks and there’s absolutely no ambience whatsoever and I feel sorry for them. There is a great Indian restaurant around the corner if you want Indian food so the opportunity to produce something unique is there, its just not being taken advantage of.
