In this episode of Hammy Eats, Nick Hamman heads to the Foreshore in Cape Town to visit one of the Mother City’s most iconic takeaways, Mariam’s Kitchen.
A beloved local institution for over 30 years, this family-run business began with Mariam, a woman whose passion for quality, consistency, and community helped shape Cape Town’s fast food heritage. Today, her sons continue her legacy, serving the same legendary flavours that generations of Capetonians have grown up loving.
From their famous salomie, a flaky, buttery paratha stuffed with spicy steak, chicken, or beans curry, to their steak sandwiches, chicken mayo toasties, and classic chips-and-egg combos, Mariam’s Kitchen is all about authentic Cape Town comfort food made with love.
