There's a South African restaurant on Auckland's North Shore that we've been so eager to try out called Serengeti Restaurant. So that's where we headed.
The restaurant was so relaxed and chilled and was such a wonderful, warming experience. They play South African music, including Miriam Makeba, Yvonne Chaka Chaka & Mafikizolo, it was awesome! It's owned by South Africans and even the waitresses are all South African. The menu was so intriguing with all the South African food listed and all the specialities were there, including pap & vleis & samp & beans! You could order ostrich too!
Cam ordered a Rib & Steak combo and I had the Surf & turf! The food was amazing and tasted of home! And of course, Cam had to have his Carling Black Label beer and I ordered a Savannah Dry cider. We definitely are going back there, even though it's a half hour drive!!! We walked out of the restuarant totally satisfied and had to keep reminding ourselves that we were not in South Africa but in NZ! It reminded us so much of home and the good food we so dearly miss. It's taken us 3 years to find a restaurant that we both dearly love and enjoy eating at and I can tell you this, WE'VE FOUND IT!!!
All in all it was a great date and I can't wait for the next date night!
