1 DASSIESFONTEIN

For traditional boerekos

Dassiesfontein has grown from two humble roadside wagons into a much-loved landmark. The tiny farmstall section is most famous for its lamb pies and fresh plaasbrood, while on the shelves you’ll find local preserves and honey, or a bag of pap for your weekend braai. Through a doorway and you’re in the restaurant, where a hodge-podge of mismatched wooden tables and chairs gather around a crackling fire. If you’re hungry you’re in luck; Dassies is famous for its hearty, traditional boerekos. Go for the waterblommetjiebredie in season. Locals also love the curried tripe, offered on Saturdays. N2, 13 km west of Caledon; tel: 028 214 1475; dassies.co.za
