The Eastern Food Bazaar

Welcome to the Eastern Food Bazaar

The Eastern food bazaar needs no introduction.

I went in with the notion that I was going to compare it with Bukhara where I discovered my liking for Indian Cuisine. Unfortunately, you wont find the same quality at the Eastern Food Bazaar BUT you will be able to buy loads of food in large portions for ridiculously cheap.

All the different food prep stations nestled closely next to each other.

My boyfriend and I decided to go for dishes we have not tried before. For starters we shared a bowl of fried bites  I won't order that again. It was oily and old so rather stay away.

For mains the boyfriend opted for a lamb bunny chow and I had the cheesy chicken masala dosa. If you are not into Indian cuisine you can also buy pizza here.

Portions were so large we only ate a quarter of it!

The food was tasty and way too much! This was a once off experience for me. Our whole meal was R100 and the low prices really makes this establishment attractive.

The best part of the whole meal was the delicious ice-cream. For R10 you receive two scoops.

 

There's seating downstairs where you buy your food as well as upstairs. It's very vibey and a range of diners can be observed. There were a lot of tourist, large families and friends dining together. Just be careful with all your belongings. Two of my friends have been robbed here.

Eastern Food Bazaar won't be my go to place for Indian cuisine but it's a place you have to experience once and a option when there is more month than money left in you budget.
