#HighburyHearsYou – we at Cape Town Etc are passionate about getting local restaurants back and booming in business. As part of our #HighburyHearsYou initiative, we’re dishing out the deets on some incredible restaurants in and around town.
We love Mexican culture for many reasons, but most of all, the food. There’s no better way to celebrate life than with a mouthwatering, flavoursome and delicioso spicy Mexican meal. And of course, no sit-down is complete without a hearty shot of tequila or an icy mojito.
Luckily, Cape Town has no shortage of international food! We like to get down and fiesta at these fine establishments.

You haven’t been to Cape Town if you haven’t been for a jol in this lekker hangout. Dig into the tastiest nachos you’ll eat while the cocktails keep coming. The chilli poppers are the real deal too. They have several branches, find them in Gardens, Mowbray or Woodstock. Warning: their home-brewed gingerbread tequilas are delicious but deadly.
