… and eating! A big part of any safari is the meals. However, many people do not know what food to expect during a safari, especially at Pamuzinda, the royal place!
We are committed to making meals for everyone to love, but we’ve decided to take that extra step. Flavours, textures and presentation are always important when it comes to what you’re eating. However, having the right ambience can turn a good meal into a great one. Our focus is to find the perfect spot, offer the perfect food and make it a unique, delightful experience for all involved.
POTJIE POT SUPPER IN THE BUSH
A Potjie, literally translated, is a small-pot food and is a dish best prepared and served outside. A local speciality in the environment it was made for. A Potjie at Pamuzinda watching the sunset joined by wild animals in the bush. The flavours and scenery complement each other to no end. What is better than sipping on a cold beverage, the atmosphere around a campfire and the potjies bubbling away while dusk approaches? Not much.
BUSH BRAAI
Who doesn’t love a good barbecue/braai/barbie? Bush braais are one of the cooking methods used to prepare food to expect during a Safari And who doesn’t love adventuring in the African bush? Wonderful in taste and aroma, these braais will make your mouth watering before you can say “Oh my grill!”.
Vegetarians – No meat? no problem. Smoky miso aubergines, coconut paneer with charred naans and grilled avocado halves with harissa hummus and tahini yoghurt will even cause a stir among the heftiest of meat eaters!
LUNCH WITH YOUR HORSE
For the horse riding fanatics – or anyone who wants a fun and different equestrian experience. Ride your noble steed up to the dam or the fig tree, have a paddle in the water and jump off for a bite to eat. Experienced horse guides will take care of your horse while we wine and dine you before heading home. The horseback safaris enable you to get up close and personal with the park’s wildlife, and for the experienced few you can gallop along the airstrip to work up your appetite for your fabulous lunch in an equally fabulous location.
CANAPES AND SUN-DOWNERS AT AYRE’S ROCK
No, sorry, we are not flying you to Australia – Instead, we have our very own, mini Ayre’s Rock. This spot for sun-downers is a classic, with an aerial view of the park, you can see for miles and spot game from the comfort of your gin and tonic. But that’s not what we’re here for. Feast your eyes on tempting canapes including watermelon cubed with balsamic reduction and mint, melted brie with caramelised pear crostinis and crocodile rissoles.
