Cafe Third World

Pictured here is one of our favourite restaurants. That collection of cardboard and sheets on the roof is the employee housing programme.






























Chicken is the main fare here, most of which is cooked outside like this. The rest is baked in coal ovens inside, which you'll see later.


You place your order and someone yells it very loudly through one of these little windows at the back, and moments later food comes flying out. I decided to step back into the kitchen and take a look at where all the magic happens.







First up, Man Stirring Pot. I could almost gaurantee that you've never had a better bean soup than the stuff he's got on the boil there.













This is possibly the biggest pot of rice I have ever seen. They serve a lot of rice around here.













In the back corner, some men slaughter goats while others wash dishes. As I was photographing the dish washer a distressed-looking goat was led past me; moments later he was on the grill.






















In the other corner are some personal effects of the employees hung to dry.













And these are the charcoal pits used for baking chicken if you don't fancy barbecue.










The workers are a happy lot and they were excited to have me around for a while. They kept firing up different grills with no food on them and washing dishes that were already clean just to make sure I got pictures of everything they do.

It's a great spot with wonderful food and a fun atmosphere. If you come visit we'll take you there.
