Shisanyama, Gatsbys, Bunny Chows and Beats: Rosebank Mall Serves Up a Taste of Mzansi

by Richard van Staden

South African street food takes centre stage as Rosebank Mall transforms Bath Avenue into a vibrant food-and-music playground for its next Street Feast. From 10am to 7pm, this free-entry event brings locals and visitors together for a day of flavour, culture, and community.

A Feast of South African Flavours

The first 100 visitors will be welcomed with a complimentary rooibos-infused gin cocktail, setting the tone for a proudly local celebration.

Expect iconic street eats from across the country:

  • Amelia’s Kitchen dishes up Durban’s legendary bunny chow, a hollowed-out loaf overflowing with spicy curry.
  • White Cocoa delivers smoky shisanyama vibes, where marinated meat sizzles over open flames.
  • Just Jo brings Cape Town’s towering Gatsby sandwiches, made to be shared with friends, alongside juicy hamburgers.
  • Sweet Scoops cools things down with creamy ice cream treats.

The Soundtrack to Your Saturday

Food isn’t the only star of the day – a line-up of top DJs will keep the energy pumping with everything from house to amapiano, kwaito to contemporary South African beats.

Catch sets from Kyotic, Ryan The DJ, Lula Obida, Chelsea Sloan, Chowmein, Teddy Tumi, Kylo, and Ty Dilla, ensuring that the party atmosphere lasts from the first bite to the last track.

More Than Just a Mall Event

“Street Feast events are about more than food,” says Angelisa Gengan, Marketing Manager at Rosebank Mall. “They create community, celebrate culture, and provide a platform for local entrepreneurs and artists. We’re not just a shopping destination – we’re a place where people come together to connect and make memories.”

By spotlighting local food entrepreneurs and Mzansi flavours, Rosebank Mall is creating a space where cultural heritage and contemporary creativity blend seamlessly.

Come Hungry, Leave Happy

From comfort food that sparks nostalgia to new tastes waiting to become your next obsession, this event has something for everyone. Whether you’re arriving solo or with friends, the Street Feast guarantees full bellies, happy hearts, and memories to last.
