Descripción del tour
Bo-Kaap se encuentra en las faldas de Signal Hill, por encima de la ciudad, con casas pintadas de vivos colores que se han convertido en el paisaje urbano más fotografiado de Sudáfrica. Detrás de esa pintura se halla una comunidad de descendientes de personas que fueron llevadas a El Cabo como esclavos y exiliados políticos desde Indonesia, Malasia, India y Madagascar a partir de la década de 1650, y la cocina Cape Malay es lo que crearon aquí.
Comenzamos en una tienda de especias presente en Wale Street desde 1946 que aún mezcla a mano sus propios masalas, donde su guía le presentará las combinaciones características de especias de Cape Malay (dulces, aromáticas, apenas ligeramente picantes) y en qué se diferencian de las especias indias.
Después comemos. Bobotie, carne picada especiada cubierta con una capa de crema de huevo horneada y hojas de laurel, el plato nacional de Sudáfrica. Denningvleis, un estofado de cordero agridulce con tamarindo. Samoosas hechas a mano y daltjies, buñuelos de garbanzo con chile y cilantro. Y koeksister: la versión Cape Malay, una especie de dónut especiado rebozado en coco, no la versión trenzada afrikáans, y su guía le explicará la diferencia con todo detalle porque a la gente de aquí le importa de verdad.
Grupo reducido, máximo 8 personas, completamente a pie.

Itinerario detallado
Stop 1 - Spice shop since 1946: Hand-blended Cape Malay masalas, with your guide on the difference between Cape Malay and Indian spicing and why this one is sweet rather than fiery.
Stop 2 - Samoosas and daltjies: Hand-folded samoosas and chilli-and-coriander chickpea fritters, from a corner cafe that has sold them for generations.
Stop 3 - Bo-Kaap streets: A guided walk through the painted houses with your guide on the community's origins, the Group Areas Act, and the gentrification pressure the neighbourhood is under now. We ask before photographing anyone's home.
Stop 4 - Bobotie: Spiced minced meat with dried fruit under a baked egg custard, with yellow rice, chutney and sambals. South Africa's national dish, in the neighbourhood that made it.
Stop 5 - Denningvleis: A sweet-and-sour lamb stew with tamarind, cloves and allspice - the oldest Cape Malay dish still cooked.
Stop 6 - Koeksister: The Cape Malay version, a spiced doughnut rolled in coconut, not the plaited Afrikaans one. The distinction matters here.
Stop 7 - Rooibos or masala tea: A last cup, with your guide's notes on where to eat in Cape Town and how to do a township food experience properly.

Otras notas
Runs Monday to Saturday at 10:00. We do not run on Sundays, when much of Bo-Kaap's food trade is closed.
Bo-Kaap is a living residential neighbourhood, not an attraction, and it is under real pressure from over-tourism and property prices. We keep groups to eight, we walk quietly, we ask before photographing people or their houses, and a share of every ticket goes to the businesses we visit.
This is a Muslim neighbourhood. Alcohol is not served on this route and pork is not eaten here. Please dress modestly.
Safety: Bo-Kaap is fine in daylight with a guide. We do not run it after dark.
Load-shedding: South Africa's electricity supply has been stable recently, but we still check the schedule on the morning of every tour and our indoor stops have backup power.
Cape Town tap water is safe to drink, which makes this the easiest food tour in Africa on that front.
Dietary needs: tell us at least 48 hours ahead. Vegetarian is straightforward via samoosas, daltjies, bean curries and breyani.
About 2 km of walking, some of it steeply uphill on cobbles.
