Vegetarian
Food/Shops in the area
Owing to
South Africa's outdoor culture, which relies heavily
on barbecues (braais) and the relative cheapness of
meat vegetarianism is less common than in the first
world or Asia. Nevertheless there are a growing number
of outlets in the Fish Hoek area where you can buy vegetarian
food some of it of high quality.
Fry's
Frozen foods -
Sausages, Cutlets, Schnitzel, Polony, Burgers etc are
highly recommended, are available at many supermarkets*
and are suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Browse
their website
for more detailed information.
