BO-KAAP TOUR | CAPE TOWN TRAVEL GUIDE [2019]
Cape Town Travel Guide: Bo-Kaap Tour
Join me as I take you on a tour of the Bo-Kaap, Cape Town, South Africa. Take a stroll through the multi-coloured rows of houses of mixed Cape Dutch and Georgian architecture. Previously all the houses had to be white, while on lease to the slaves but eventually this rule was lifted. The slaves were then allowed to buy the properties and all the houses were painted bright colours by their owners as an expression of their freedom.
Today the Bo-Kaap community is a significant part of our cultural heritage and has officially been preserved as a heritage site.

COLORFUL BO-KAAP and a STROLL around CAPE TOWN | South Africa
After our safari in Kruger National Park, we flew to Cape Town. Bo-Kaap is a small neighborhood in Cape Town that far exceeded our expectations. We loved walking around the colorful buildings before heading to an Eastern food market and the piers. The people of South Africa are so kind, and we loved our first day!

Hi! We're just your average husband and wife flying around the world in business class for FREE. Without our miles and points, we never would have been able to afford this once-in-a-lifetime experience. We grew up on opposite sides of the United States in Texas and Ohio. Later in college, we met and got married in August of 2016. As poor newly weds and recent college grads, we moved to New York City to begin what we thought would be our long careers in finance. Only one year later, after accumulating over 2 million points through travel hacking, we booked round-the-world business class tickets to over 40 countries. Completely for free, using the personal travel hacks we had learned to save us $62,000. We quit our jobs, sold everything we owned, and began this once-in-a-lifetime adventure on August 27, 2018. Our hope is to entertain and enrich you every day through our daily videos, as well as share the personal travel hacks we're using to travel the world for free :) Let's be friends :) say hello sometime!

Home to the Cape Malay people, Bo-Kaap was were the slaves brought in by the early Dutch settlers from various Asian countries lived.

Cape Malay Food - Eating South African Cuisine at Biesmiellah in Bo-Kaap, Cape Town, South Africa Travel Food Transcript:
Alright guys, so it is lunchtime here in Cape Town and today we are in Bo Kaap (Malay Quarter) the colorful neighborhood. We're going to be having some Cape Malay food which is very exciting because this is very multicultural food in a way that is very unique to the Cape here in South Africa.
Visiting the colorful neighborhood of Bo-Kaap is your best bet to try Cape Malay cuisine This is a fusion between Malaysian, Indonesian and South African culinary traditions characterized by flavorful and aromatic ingredients.
So we're eating here at Biesmiellah restaurant (The Lounge) and we have our friend Trudy who is a local of Stellenbosch to thank for this. Because otherwise we probably wouldn't have found out about this place. And this place is apparently a bit of an institution here in Bo-Kaap.
Yeah, yeah and so we've like ordered a lot. Haha. A lot of food. We've got appetizers, we've got mains, we've got drinks and we've got desserts coming and it is all quite affordable so we can't wait for all of the food to come and we're just going to have another feast of feasts here in Cape Town, South Africa.
Alright, so all the food is here and it smells and it looks amazing. But we're going to be trying something new. We're having something called bobotie. At least I think that is how you say it and I'm going to read you the description because this sounds tantalizing.
A sweet sour flavored lean beef mince, stir-fried with fresh herbs, spices topped with a milked egg glaze served with sweet yellow rice. You can see that milk egg.
So we've been in South Africa for two weeks now and this is my first time trying this. Even though we've had Cape Malay food once before. Yeah, this is definitely our first time and we also didn't have it on the first trip either so this is really special. One of our last meals.
Time for dish number two. So the next one that we got is a mutton curry and it says skewers of mutton cooked gently and slowly with a blend of traditional spices and herbs to produce a tantalizing curry. Check that out.
Time for dessert and we are having puddings. Pudding.
So we have sago pudding which apparently is typical type of Indian inspired pudding. Yeah. And then we have over here Malva pudding which is sort of more traditional South African.
So this one is called a Koeksister or a Koeksisters.
Okay, and it is a fried doughnut.
ime for price point. So that was 340 Rand which at current exchange is about $25 US dollars. So we did get ended up being three drinks, we got an appetizer, two mains and three desserts. So we kind of, we kind of went overboard a little bit but uh yeah still good definitely good value for money spent and one thing that we've really enjoyed about Cape Town is that it is very much a foodie city.
This is part of our Travel in South Africa video series showcasing South African food, South African culture and South African cuisine.

More Than Colourful Houses - Bo Kaap Documentary
Forcibly removed from District 6, Fozia now lives in Bo-Kaap, a famous historical area close to Cape Town city centre. Developers are gentrifying the area, raising houses prices and tearing down historic buildings, displacing residence due to the rising costs. We see Fozia and her community struggle to protect the history of the place they call home.
