Hungry Camel — Restaurant in George

My all-time favourite in George. Hungry Camel is a local place - the 'Oom' and 'Tannie' are always friendly and not only serve the customers themselves, but also make the food using fresh ingredients. The prices are really good.

My lunch dates are almost always at Hungry Camel, and I've never been disappointed with...

There is no sign indicating this. Then I asked him if one could sit inside and order coffee to which he replied "it is usually full inside" only one table was occupied. (He made it clear I would not be welcome there. The coffee was bitter too. I will not go back...

This restaurant was truly so wholesome! I believe one of the owners helped us with our order, she was amazingly kind and made us feel so welcome. The decor of the restaurant is also unique, very interesting to explore and reminded me of 'home' in the Middle East. 🙈

The variety of food they have is probably one of the most impressive things to me, there is such a diverse choice of dishes that (I believe) speak for different cultures, dishes I find hard to get in the Garden route. Thanks so much for our...
