Meeting Point

Bokaap Deli

114 Church St, Bokaap, Cape Town, 8001, South Africa

I will meet you in front of the Bo-Kaap Deli on 114 Church Street, Bo-Kaap. It's a blue café on the corner of Rose and Church Streets. Parking is very limited in Bo-Kaap, so it's best to take an Uber or park on Riebeeck Square and walk up one road to the meeting point.

What to expect:

Faeeza’s Home Kitchen

After meandering through Bo-Kaap's cobbled roads and side-streets we stop for a relaxing tea break in the Garden of one's Bo-Kaap's resident food hosts. We will sample 3 favourite Cape Malay snacks with Rooibos whilst socialising. Our activity ends with a stroll back to the meeting point.
