Fresh Biltong near me!

South Africans. Who will be throwing up on the bus on Friday night.

No wonder RAVE is so angry lol

I tried some and it tasted like herbified shoe leather to me. I suppose it's a bit of an aquired taste and not for everyone.

I am in Tanzania at the moment and tonight is the cocktail night at the Holiday Inn. Among the delights on offer is really good biltong, fresh from the bush. (It does grow on bushes, right?). I took 250g home for my daughter last time and she loved it. I will try to get the manufacturer's name so I can order it online.

Took it home from Tanzania, or from Brucelles? What's the regs on bring meat into the EU like for biltong?

Dont think there is any. My cousins brought some in before.

Somewhere near Clark Road isn't it?

Erm... Tigs?

Its a fair trek for me, well over an hour I reckon which is why I asked if there was anywhere nearer me!

Sorry, I don't really know about the wrong side of the river...

If you are lucky enough to live in SW London then go to Chakalaka's. Its a SA restaurant in Putney with great food, wine and a really good atmosphere.

Yes Holy Thread resurrection Batman, but I just wanted to add, I went to said restaurant above last night. its really nice! Took my parents there and they enjoyed it. Word of warning, if you drive beware Upper Richmond street gets chocked up with traffic. The last 3 miles took 30mins to drive! Next time I'll come in a different route. Food was great and staff were good. Thumbs up from me.
