This year, the Durban Street Food Festival is going global with an array of cuisine from Durban’s diverse food culture and beyond.

CALLING all foodies – Caxton Local Media is partnering up with the Durban Street Food Festival (#DSFF) to give away six double tickets to the sixth instalment of the iconic festival.

The festival will take place at The Pavilion Shopping Centre on Friday, September 23 from 17:00 to 22:00 and on Saturday, September 24 from 11:00 to 22:00 at the rooftop parking area near Entrance 5.

This year, #DSFF is going global with an array of cuisine from Durban’s diverse food culture and beyond. Foodies can expect to find Hollywoodbets bunny chows, freshly made Italian pasta, Portuguese dishes, Indonesian noodles, Moroccan lamb on the spit, Caribbean prawns, Cape Malay Koeksisters, and of course, the famous Durban curries. There will also be traditional burgers and wors rolls available as well as Halaal and vegetarian options within the food-court section – what better way to celebrate the Heritage Day weekend?
