A simple favourite with a unique twist. 🥜🍚❤️

Mashakada — rice cooked with peanut butter for a rich, nutty flavour and wonderfully comforting taste.

Simple, filling and full of nostalgia, it’s one of those traditional dishes that reminds you that some of the best food doesn’t need to be complicated.

Come and enjoy a taste of African cuisine at Pahari African Restaurant.

A plate full of tradition, flavour and memories. ❤️🌍

At Pahari, we celebrate the dishes many of us grew up eating — hearty, comforting African food made the traditional way.

On this table: Rapoko pap (Zviyo), Mupandawana — meaty beef bones cooked with green vegetables, Guru (tripe) and Zondo (ox trotters). 🍲

Which meat are you diving into first? 👀
