#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.
Sushi. It’s not just a food delicacy, it is a culture and art all on its own. Try to tell an avid sushi fanatic that you “just don’t like sushi” and you’ll almost definitely get the response of “you just have to try it! I didn’t like it first either and now I am a fashion sandwich.”
From the mouth-watering sensation of stuffing your face with a tempura prawn handroll, or the delicacy of letting a salmon rose melt in your mouth as the soy sauce drips from your chin, it’s an experience not to be missed out on if you’re not a sushi addict yet.
In and around the Mother City, we are spoilt for choice when it comes to sushi options. We at Cape {town} Etc figured that there’s no better way to create the ultimate sushi guide other than to ask locals for their top picks.
Here are the 15 sushi spots you absolutely have to try in and around Cape Town, locally approved.
