One of the things I appreciate the most on weekends is that I don't need to cook. We are nomads, we enjoy experiencing new things, new cultures and new traditions. So, weekends are the best due to the fact we travel from town to city, stopping at antique or ethnic locations, and truing some new restaurants. We decided to go on a journey through the higher Johannesburg region, therefore having to experience the Assortment in the restaurants JHB. There is so much in the country, and 1 day maybe in the world, that we like to see and experience, but nothing does and will ever come close to our favourite: restaurants.
We are people, we need food to live and survive. Why not make it as intriguing because it most likely can also be by trying anything various each time? Yes, we do have our individual, own favourite foods, but we also don't desire to consume that all of the time - no matter how much we like it and how much we have had of it. So we like to travel around in and on the nation and not only experience the vast tastes and types of food, but also the way they're served: the culture, the heritage and the tradition.
You might notice that several of the modest towns and areas have a tendency to be far more traditional and cultural than the bigger towns and cities. You'll find some smaller, secluded parts in and around Gauteng; we discovered this on our recent restaurants JHB trip, and these often make for the best conventional or cultural soul food, simply because the folks living in these towns and areas are motivated and driven to hold their culture and tradition going, and are adamant that it gets passed down to all of their young children so that they, in turn, can relive it and pass it down to their youngsters.
One of the areas we visited during our restaurants JHB trip were so secluded and so independent that they don't want any individuals in their "village" or town, if they are not approved. Should an individual would like to go stay there, they would need the approval of the rest of the town. Were they to move in with out the town residents' permission, well, let's just say that they would be dealt with. Anyway, this town had set up a conventional themed restaurant, especially for the tourists. And it's here where I had the best chicken I have ever had in my life. Not simply because the chicken itself was good, but due to the cultural and conventional stories and experience that came with it.
What I am trying to say is this: you don't have to have 1 of the best foods in town to have the best restaurant in town, there is so much more that goes with a meal. And ultimately, the folks coming to dine at your restaurant will remember you hospitality, your stories, your culture and tradition, and how you made them believe - great.
