Uit vandag se Globe and Mail travel section:
Die hoof van Hilton Canada, Armin Schroecker, word verskeie
vrae gevra. Een daarvan is "favourite out-of-town
restaurant."
Antwoord: The Butcher Shop & Grill in Johannesburg. "It
serves the best T-bone steak and allows me to drink my
favourite Pinotage red wine, a grape unique to South Africa."

I got a crazy mate who likes to insert mother in laws tongue chillies into a
piece of boerewors and then cook it on the old braai. The problem is that he
gets a little bit irresponsible and lets the "boerie that bites back" get
mixed up with everyone elses boerie. This certainly promotes the consumption
of lots of beer.

Ey my sister makes Mrs Naidoo's curried chillies, and accidentally spilled
some on her kitchen counter i it stained the melamine and after a few months
it started to crack. The brutha in law launched in some granite tops so now
she is happy. We used to smear said curried chilli sauce onto microwaved
potatoes which I think would have equipped us for the harshest of Indian
cuisine.
At one stage we had a family that moved in next door to us and the father
was a sorry alcoholic due to the emotional devastation of his wife's death.
They were a very brave sibling led family of wonderful boys and their mom
would have been proud of them. My son used to play with them and I did not
mind because they were basically good kids, but their language was foul and
so in order to put him on the straight and narrow I used to put chilli sauce
in his mouth - it worked for a while - well he is not given to swearing but
loves curries. Johnnies rotis can do their worst - he still eats it, but we
draw the line at Beachfront Bunny.

-----------------
I bought a bottle of curried chillies a week or so ago. I haven't
started tucking into them yet, I'm keeping them as a treat when the
'Bushman's Revenge' top-of-the-range sauce runs out.
