Descripción del tour
La gastronomía de la zona del City Bowl de Ciudad del Cabo es un punto de encuentro entre las cocinas malaya del Cabo, afrikáner, xhosa, india y portuguesa, concentrada en unas pocas manzanas accesibles a pie entre la montaña y el puerto.
Comenzamos con biltong —no es cecina, y su guía le explicará por qué: carne secada al aire, aderezada con semillas de cilantro y cortada en lonchas gruesas— junto con droëwors, al tiempo que visitamos Greenmarket Square y el antiguo Slave Lodge.
Después viene el Gatsby: una barra de pan de unos 30 centímetros abierta y rellena de patatas fritas, filete al masala o calamares, lechuga y salsa peri-peri, creada en Cape Flats en los años setenta y pensada para compartir entre cuatro personas. Compartiremos una, tal y como debe disfrutarse.
También probaremos boerewors, la salchicha tradicional especiada con semillas de cilantro y asada al carbón en un braai; bunny chow, una hogaza de pan ahuecada y rellena de curry, originaria de la comunidad india de Durban; y un plato de snoek, el pescado emblemático del Cabo, ahumado y servido con mermelada de albaricoque.
Terminamos con una cata sentada de vinos de la región del Cabo —chenin blanc y pinotage, la variedad autóctona creada en Sudáfrica— acompañada de una porción de tarta de leche.
Grupo reducido, máximo 8 personas, recorrido totalmente a pie.

Itinerario detallado
Stop 1 - Biltong and droëwors: Air-dried beef with coriander and vinegar, cut thick, plus dried sausage. Your guide explains why calling it jerky will not win you friends here.
Stop 2 - Greenmarket Square: A short guided walk through the square and past the old slave lodge, with your guide on the city's founding and what it was built on.
Stop 3 - The Gatsby: A foot-long roll filled with chips, masala steak and peri-peri, invented in the Cape Flats in the 1970s to feed four workers for the price of one. We share one, which is how it is meant to be done.
Stop 4 - Boerewors off the braai: Coriander-spiced farm sausage grilled over wood, with pap and chakalaka, and your guide on why a braai is not a barbecue.
Stop 5 - Bunny chow: A hollowed half-loaf filled with bean or mutton curry, brought to the Cape from Durban's Indian community.
Stop 6 - Smoked snoek: The Cape's own fish, smoked and eaten with apricot jam and bread - an odd-sounding combination that works.
Stop 7 - Cape wine and milk tart: A seated tasting of chenin blanc and pinotage, the grape South Africa created, with a slice of cinnamon-dusted milk tart.

Otras notas
Runs daily at 11:30.
Minimum age 18 because of the wine tasting. We can run a private family version with juice instead - ask us.
Safety: the CBD is fine in daylight and in a group in the early evening on the main streets. We keep phones away in the square, we use e-hailed cars after dark, and we do not walk through the Company's Garden or the Grand Parade after dusk.
On township food tours: we are often asked, and our answer is that we only run them in partnership with a Langa-based operator, with a named host household, a real meal at a community kitchen, a published revenue split and a group of no more than eight. We do not do drive-by photography. Ask us and we will arrange it properly; we will not sell you a poverty tour.
Load-shedding: supply has been stable recently, but we check the schedule on the morning of every tour and our indoor stops have backup power.
Cape Town tap water is safe to drink.
Dietary needs: tell us at least 48 hours ahead. Vegetarian and halal versions are both workable with notice; the Gatsby and bunny chow both have excellent meat-free versions.
About 2.5 km of walking, mostly flat with one gentle climb.
