Christmas Day Lunch at The Backyard Grill Lounge

Enjoy a jolly good chisa nyama at this cosy Sea Point braai spot

What better way is there to celebrate Christmas in Cape Town than with a truly South African meal? Tuck into specially priced braai platters jam-packed with juicy chops, steak and sausage at the Backyard Grill Lounge in Sea Point this festive season.

Perfect for visitors to the fair Cape who want to get a taste of a proudly Mzansi pastime or city-dwellers who simply do not have the facilities to fire up their own braai, this welcoming Atlantic Seaboard restaurant is the perfect spot to enjoy smoky eats straight off the coals under the summer sunshine.

Tucked away among the slew of grocers, salons, Chinese shops and cafés, this open plan beach-chic venue is more like a home-away-from-home than a restaurant. The unassuming indoor portion of the eatery opens up onto a roomy backyard area, and with the braai area in full view, patrons can chat to resident braaier and owner Jason, while enjoying a drink of choice.

Bookings for 2013 Christmas Day Lunch at The Backyard Grill Lounge

Booking is essential for spots at this Christmas Day Lunch, and braai platters to share will cost a mere R130p/p. Side dishes cost R20 per dish, and meat is charged per kilogram for those who want to make up their own platters.
