JABULA
Overlooking the Manchester Ship Canal, this authentic eatery serves up homely dishes cooked with imported African meat. Think crocodile bites and biltong salad, but also street and beach food like vetkoek (mince pastry) and bunny chow (bread fi lled with curry). Don't miss live drumming on Friday nights and their bush tucker trials organised for special occasions.
