In this episode of Hammy Eats, Nick heads to Soweto, Johannesburg, specifically Protea Glen, to visit Southside Grills and meet Hloni Motaung, a young entrepreneur building one of the most exciting grill brands in South Africa.
Southside Grills has become a must-visit Soweto food destination, known for massive portions, bold flavours, quality ingredients, and an unforgettable street food experience. Hloni’s journey from starting with a small trailer to running a fast-growing grill business is a powerful story of passion, resilience, and purpose.
Nick dives into the food that’s made Southside Grills famous, tasting his way through one of the most indulgent menus in Johannesburg.
