Maplankeng Eatery

1344 Molebatsi St Dobsonville

See route

I’m  Nick Hamman, and if you want to indulge in some delicious ribs and chips in Soweto, you should come to Maplankeng Eatery, situated at 1344 Molebatsi street in Dobsonville Arriving at the spot before the rush, I took a seat upstairs, to watch the streets go about their business while I enjoyed 300g smoked ribs and chips which came for what I felt to be a very fair R95. The meat isn’t smoked on site, but rather comes from a butchery. However, the basting was sweet and delicious, and the ribs were tender. The chips were also freshly fried and crispy. I found the staff friendly and the service good. Sitting here, to the west of Meadowlands, near more famous areas like Orlando, I couldn’t help but think of how much places like this could benefit from attention and investment, already doing so many things right to make for a fantastic experience. I’d highly recommend checking Maplankeng eatery out on your next visit to Dobsonville Soweto. Make sure to let me know in the comments where you think I should go next.
