🇿🇦 Johannesburg Western Cuisine Guide
1️⃣ Kolonaki Greek Kouzina 🇬🇷 ✨ A stylish Greek restaurant with fantastic vibes! Loved the presentation & unique sauces (great for first-timers!) Must-try: Cheese-stuffed giant fries with avocado dip (addictive!) Skip the lamb (a bit heavy) Sweet surprise: Free birthday dessert with sparklers! 🎂🎇 Service: Attentive & friendly 2️⃣ Istanbul Kebab Melrose Arch 🇹🇷 🔥 Feels like a cozy street-side eatery in Turkey! Chill, safe & spacious (perfect for groups) Complimentary starters: Dips, bread & salads Star dish: Grilled meat + flatbread (carbs + fat = perfection!) Verdict: A must-visit for authentic flavors! 3️⃣ Matsuya Teppanyaki 🇯🇵 🍳 Unexpected Chinese twist in a Japanese teppanyaki spot! Thai chef, Chinese decor ( painting & Chinese BGM 😂) Food: Average (but the Chinese-style cucumber salad was fun!) Teppanyaki show: Entertaining, but not mind-blowing 4️⃣ Korean Garden Restaurant 🇰🇷 🥢 The Korean spot locals love! Packed with Chinese diners (less sweet, more authentic flavors) Highlights: Crispy fried chicken (not overly saucy) Juicy pork neck (tender & flavorful) Small space—go early! 5️⃣ The Raj On The Square 🇮🇳 🌶️ Cozy Indian dining by Mandela Square! Best for: Buttery garlic naan + rich curries Must-order: Lamb curry (classic!) Ambience: Romantic with square views at night ✨ #JoburgEats #SouthAfrica #FoodieGuide #Johannesburg #TravelDining #GreekFood #TurkishEats #KoreanBBQ #IndianCurry
