Braai platters
Fixed-price platters for one or for two: a mix of our best-selling cuts, braaied on the fire and packed to eat. Add pap and salsa for R10 each. Platters are priced as round numbers so the counter never has to weigh or work out a total while you wait.

"R70 of sausage", "R50 of wings", "R120 of rump": that is how most people order, and that is how we serve. Say the rand amount and we weigh to match it.
Bulk and weekend buys
