Eateries Cape Town

These are some of the restaurants, bistro's and eateries I would suggest. Being a total foodie myself, this is part of the adventure when traveling. My recommended sights to visit, if you're looking for things to see and do.
The best Ethiopian food you will get in Cape Town. The vibe is trendy, earthy and welcoming; and the food is simply amazing. There's also a Vegan branch of this wonderful restaurant, situated in the same building. The Vegan dishes are simply delicious.
