Good to know

Best areas
Bo-Kaap for mosques and Cape Malay food; ask local hosts for further options.
Check halal status
Confirm the exact branch’s certification, alcohol in cooking and shared equipment.
Local food
Ask about meat in bobotie, bredies and gatsby fillings. Seafood still needs sauce checks.
Pastries
