22nd August 2012 at 8:42 AMIf you talking Durban you must be talking Johnny’s Roties. Chip cheese and mutton gravy roti makes any grey day more exciting.

21st August 2012 at 10:26 AMI hate to be boring, but I also have to say a curry BUT my favourite is a little different! I love making my own curries so I can add my own “pizzazz”. A tasty masala from Gorima’s transforms plain pink prawns into heaven…. I also chuck in a few chunks of hake and a few calamari rings. The key is loads of torn coriander stirred in just before serving. Served with fresh butter naans from Copper Chimney mm mm mm….

20th August 2012 at 2:53 PMDurbs is good for SO many yummy dishes – a perfectly cut pineapple on the beach, a hot and spicy chicken curry bunny or fresh seafood sushi from our ocean!

20th August 2012 at 1:03 PMThe most recognized and delicious Indian dish in Durban has to be the Mutton Curry! You can get it in many forms from well established Indian restaurants in Durban like lamb rogan josh and lamb vindaloo but mutton curry has to be best eaten in a bunny! Nothing beats a Durban Mutton Bunny when it comes to great taste, convenience and a uniquely fun way to eat mutton curry!
cindy
20th August 2012 at 11:55 AMa curry in any shape or form – bunny chow, mutton curry & rice or veg breyani gets my vote!
Taila
