The M&M Solutions girls head off to Mzoli's last Sunday
M&M Travel Solutions is all about advising our clients on what is best. We go and experience the places we recommend and keep track of the reputation. We love to use our personal experiences as a reference and that is exactly what we did this past weekend.
The M&M Travel Solutions' girls, Anne, Kylie, Katharina and Bianca went off to one of Cape Town's favourite hot spots. Situated in the Gugulethu Township on the outskirts of Cape Town, is Mzol's. Mzoli's is primarily a butchery, however people typically go and choose their meat then braai it on one of the many fires in the open air. Then it is off to the restaurant next door where people of all races and walks of life come together for a real party. Food, alcohol and music is what brings everyone together. It is the place to really see what Nelson Mandela's vision was for the new South Africa.

Although situated in the middle of the township, the local community works together to make it safe for the tourists. This does not mean that nothing will happen, just that it is safer than usual. Pick pocketing can easily still occur, however we all know that it is a typical 80/20 principal where 80 percent of the locals and visitors are good and want to deter crime, yet 20 percent have the urge to take advantage of situations. So we do recommend that wallets are not kept in pockets but rather that a general bag is carried which is under your arm and sipped closed. Keep your eyes on your things and you will definitely have a great time.
Mzoli's is a lot of fun. We went in a group, ate out of a shared bowl and danced to the local music with locals and tourists. People are there to have a good time and that is exactly what you end up having.
The meat takes some time to prepare, at least 30 min, however it can take up to 90 minutes. Nevertheless, it seems to not bother anyone. Once the meat is ready it it apparent how worth the while the wait is. Tending towards the spicy side, people should make sure they have something to drink.
