Dinner in Bo-Kaap at Biesmiellah





The following blog post was written on the evening of the 6th of August while in Cape Town!

For dinner today we went to the Bo-Kaap district. This area is the home to the famously bright colored houses on the hill. It is typically known to be the Muslim area of town.
We had a fantastic meal at Biesmiellah restaurant! I recommend the butter chicken to anybody visiting the area. After we eat we walked to the Rose Corner Café to get a candy bar and call for a cab. The market had a cabinet covered with money from around the world. It was really neat to look at all the different currencies, some of which were quite old. We offered a US dollar, but they said their customers would not be in favor of it being there.
