The Burner

I’m Nick Hamman and I’m looking for the best bunny chow in South Africa and so you might ask, well then why are you in the mother city, eating at a place where the owner didn’t even grow up in Durban, but rather Rylands? Well, because his mother did and she’s who taught him how to cook. Visva Nair is the business man behind probably the most requested Bunny Chow spot outside of Durban I’ve received. He owns the business together with his wife Maggie, who is from Durban and is the brains behind the recipes.
These are intergenerational recipes, where the spices are mixed by themselves, the cooking techniques of Indian Durban heritage from how things are braised, to how the curry is built is done the old school way here. This is the Burner, it’s in Century city and it’s a serious operation. They’re going through around 10 lambs a day and 40kgs of boneless lamb on top of that. They’ve got 24 burners making massive amounts of food and despite that scale, Maggie still makes sure she over sees the entire process.
If you order here, use my promo code hammy30 for R30 off your order and Mutton the Mutton Bunny Chow and then you come back and tell me its not a 10/10, but if this isn’t the best Bunny Chow in South Africa, this is gonna be the last one we do for a while so make sure you go and fight me in the comments now so we can eventually setlle the debate once and for all.
