The one shop food market, where you find most of the world's favorite dish/snack under one roof.
Absolutely one of the places to check out an hang out whether you a local people or first-timer visiting South Africa, don't miss out on this space.
There's quite a bit of things to explore at the neighbourgoods Market other then just the food, you can also find live entertainment djs on the decks, guaranteed to make you dance while you explore. There's some seating area close to the dj for those who wanna be closer to the music. It gets very loud around that side of the market, so move quickly if sound isn't your thing. You can find some more spots which is quieter for your enjoyment.

There's some car guards outside, if you choose to drive with your own car, however these car guards tend to be very pushy and picky about who parks where an who needs to get your money.

Rather safe then sorry people. If you not sure where to find this parking, ask the security guard at the entrance of the Market to point you to that secure parking lot ( its right opposite the market)
