    Melissa Mandim is a Santa Monica College student from South Africa. Biltong is a cured meat common in South Africa. She recommends the following restaurants for those traveling to Johannesburg:

    Primi Pi'atti: a new S'African rainbow nation restaurant whose focus is on contemporary food from oval shaped pizza`s to designer salads, to amazing breakfasts and some of S'African famous meat dishes.

    Troyville Hotel:This is one of the finest places not in terms of decor but in terms of location and superb Portuguese food.

    Carnivore - about 40 mins drive from Johannesburg. This restaurant will give you a safari style experience where you can try all types of game from Kudu to Ostrich.
