Nikkei,
you say?
Bree Street in Cape
Town has become home
to Japanese–Peruvian
restaurant Charango. This
is Nikkei cuisine, and you
can expect seafood paired
with inspired flavours.
Try the ‘black’ kob with
langoustine quinoa or the
‘dirt-rubbed’ tuna tacos,
and a chilli-touched El
Gringo margarita. The
venue, designed by Bone
Interior Design Studio,
features a dramatic mural
by Faith47, a black mosaic
floor in the bar and leather
seating throughout.
