此次南非美食探索活動的特色美食包括豐富多樣的南非海鮮、沙拉、燒烤、燉菜、雞尾酒、各種飲品和甜品，這些美味飽含了南非歷史悠久的美食傳統，融匯了古代沙漠遊牧民、非洲部落、殖民者，以及歐洲、亞洲移民者的飲食文化。
The culinary journey features a broad cross-section of favourite South African seafood, salads, barbecue, stews, cocktails, drinks and desserts from a rich heritage that embraces diets from ancient desert nomads and African tribes to waves of colonists and immigrants from Europe to Asia.
恰餐廳及酒廊將為客人呈現傳統的南非美食菜單，以鮮蝦柑橘沙拉、馬來醃製魚和備受歡迎的恰卡拉卡(Chakalaka) 等開胃前菜為美食體驗拉開序幕，其中的恰卡拉卡由洋蔥、豌豆、紅甜椒、黃甜椒、青辣椒、椰漿、混合香料、焗豆和胡蘿蔔等多種食材熬煮而成。湯類菜品則包括南非西海岸青口湯、菌菇湯、南瓜濃湯等。
Char presents a traditional menu, starting with appetisers such as a shrimp & citrus salad, Cape Malay pickled fish and the country’s ubiquitous 『chakalaka』, a multi-ethnical smorgasborg of onion, garlic, tomatoes, peas, red & yellow bell peppers, green chilli, masala, mixed spices, baked beans and carrots. Soup dishes range from a West Coast mussel and mushroom to homely butternut squash.
主菜以極具代表性的南非傳統燒烤——南非肉串(Sosatie) 為亮點，同時搭配鹿肉串 (Venison) 和南非豬肉牛肉腸 (Boerewors) 等。地道的南非鐵鍋燉菜 (Potjie)，菜品包括燴牛尾配玉米泥搭配恰卡拉卡、燉鹿肉配土豆球和恰卡拉卡和奶油燴青口提子飯。其他傳統風味的主菜還包括番茄燴牛肉配玉米泥、黃豆燜豬蹄配南瓜玉米泥、必點推薦—德班咖喱羊肉，搭配咖喱土豆、燉西紅柿等素食。
Main courses are headlined by the iconic South African 『braai』 barbecue of traditional 『sosatie』 kebab skewers with 『boerewors』 and 『wurst』 sausages, served with 『pap』 maize polenta, cole slaw and 『chakalaka』 to name a few. Authentic 『potjie』 pot stews feature a choice of iconic Oxtail Potjie with Pap and Chakalaka, as well as a Mussel Potjie and Chicken Curry Potjie, both with Yellow Raisin Rice. Traditional entrees extend to Venison Stew with Potato Dumplings, Pork Trotters and Beans with Pumpkin Pap, along with a Durban Mutton Curry a must try dish and vegetarian alternatives, Cauliflower and Potato Curry, and Tomato Bredie with Pap.
南非享有盛譽的甜點傳承了歐洲開拓者發明的「布丁」做法，豐富多樣的甜品選擇包括南瓜餅、牛奶撻、白蘭地布丁、愛瑪樂奶油布蕾、南非蛋糕、馬瓦（香烤杏仁）布丁配香草沙司、南非博士茶蛋糕，以及與香草、甜橙、生薑、肉桂等配料一同烘焙的傳統南非麻花 —Koeksisters。
South Arica’s famous desserts, inherited from the 『pudding』 tradition of European settlers, range from Pumpkin Fritters, Milk Tart, Brandy Pudding, Amarula Creme Brulee, South African Trifle and Malva (Apricot baked) Pudding with Vanilla Custard to Asian-spiced Rooibos Tea Cake and traditional Koeksisters, baked with vanilla, orange, ginger and cinnamon.
盈中餐和盈料理兩家餐廳主理的南非美食包括燉菜、咖喱菜品，燒烤美食，以及和恰餐廳及酒廊類似的開胃前菜和甜品。熱點西班牙、熱點酒吧和大堂酒廊呈現的南非美食包括迷你鹿肉派、牛肉球(Frikkadels)、南非雞肝 (Peri Peri)、咖喱牛肉餅 (Bobotie)、馬來醃製魚和多種備受歡迎的南非甜點。
The Ying Chinese and Ying Japanese restaurant is focusing on 『potjie』 pot stews and curries, rather than grilled BBQ fare, with a similar range of appetisers and desserts. The Top Tapas, The Top Bar and The Lobby Lounge present a scaled-down taste of the cuisine, with canapes such as mini-venison pies, 『frikkadels』 flavourful meat balls, bruschetta chicken livers 『peri peri』, South Africa’s national meatloaf 『bobotie』, Cape Malay pickled fish and a sample of popular desserts.
南非旅遊局亞太區總裁白文博 (Bradley Brouwer) 先生表示：「豐富多樣的文化為南非贏得了『彩虹之國』的美譽，也使南非擁有了琳琅滿目的美食。南非的很多日常食物都包含著祖輩們的飲食傳統，他們為南非美食贏得全球盛譽奠定了豐厚的基礎。」
「South African cuisine is as colourful and diverse as the numerous cultures that make up the 『Rainbow Nation』, and in many ways daily diets can be traced back to the indigenous foods of their ancestors, who have paved the way forward for the Rainbow Nation's culinary expo around the world」 said Bradley Brouwer, President Asia Pacific for South African Tourism.
南非歷史悠久的美食傳統可以追溯到古時的科伊人和閃族人時期。這兩個原始部落是納米布沙漠和喀拉哈裡沙漠的遊牧民族，靠可食用的根莖和植物、以及在海邊打撈牡蠣和貝類為生。來自北部的遷徙部落—班圖人引入了農耕文化，教授當地人種植玉米、高粱、小米，然後用這些農作物製作餅類食物。
This fascinating history of culinary traditions traces back to the ancient 『Khoi』 and 『San』 people of the Namib and Kalahari deserts, who lived on edible roots and plants, and harvested oysters and mussels from the seashore. Early migrating Bantu people introduced agriculture; cultivating maize, sorghum and millet, for baking pot bread.
南非人民結合荷蘭開拓者的飲食文化，創造出經典的南非烤肉和鐵鍋燉菜。英布戰爭期間，隨著南非歷史上著名的「大遷徙」，荷蘭人向內陸遷移，以耕種和獵捕野生動物為生。他們將野生動物的肉類醃製成肉乾，這種肉乾後來成為南非最受歡迎的美味 —「biltong」。
Dutch pioneers infused the tradition of cooking meat over open fires with 『braai』 barbecues and 『potjie』 cooking pots. When they migrated inland on the 『Great Trek』 during the Anglo-Boer War, living off the land and wild game meats, they preserved meat into dried strips called 『biltong』.
來自德國、法國、英國的殖民者將歐洲烹飪方法帶到南非，其中較有代表性的食物包括德式香腸、農夫香腸，此外南非還融匯了法國胡格諾派具有數百年歷史的葡萄酒釀造傳統和英國的布丁文化。
Colonists from Germany, France and later Britain added their European cooking styles – from 『wurst』 and 『boerewors』 sausages to the centuries old wine-making tradition of French Huguenots and the English pudding culture.
早期南非富裕階層的家傭主要來自印尼、馬來西亞、馬達加斯加等地，這些人將遠東的香料帶到南非；葡萄牙殖民者將馬德拉、安哥拉、莫三比克等殖民地的辣椒帶到南非，並且引入了辣醬烤雞菜品(peri-peri)；隨著印度商人的到來，咖喱和米飯也加入了南非的美食陣營。
Domestic workers from Indonesia, Malaysia and Madagascar imported aromatic spices from the Far East; the Portuguese brought chilies from their colonies in Madeira, Angola and Mozambique, introducing hot 『peri-peri』 dishes; and curry and rice arrived with Indian traders.
「從傳統的非洲食物到殖民者和外來移民引入的美食文化，南非美食不斷進化發展，如今已經成為全球最具多樣性、最令人垂涎的風味美食之一。美食之旅已經成為遊客到訪南非的一大亮點所在，有美食的地方，就一定是能吸引八方來客的地方，」白文博先生補充道。
「This culinary evolution, from traditional African food through waves of colonisation and immigration, results today in one of the most diversified and flavourful cuisines in the world that is a highlight of any journey to South Africa, nothing brings people together like good food」 added Mr. Brouwer.
隨著人民幣對南非蘭特的匯率優勢，南非比以往更具吸引力和消費競爭力，是中國遊客享受高端旅遊和購物體驗的超值目的地。北京往返約翰尼斯堡的直航，以及經由香港、新加坡和中東轉機前往南非的航班也為中國遊客提供了前所未有的航空便利。
South Africa’s appeal to visitors extends to a favourable exchange rate, making the country a very attractive and competitively priced destination, while direct Beijing-Johannesburg flights, as well as many more via Hong Kong, Singapore and the Middle East, have established closer air links than ever before.
為了讓南非旅行更加順暢無阻，南非旅遊局在北京、上海、廣州、成都、西安、瀋陽、武漢、濟南以及杭州等九個城市開設了籤證中心，方便遊客就近辦理籤證。另外，南非旅遊局還和中國銀行聯名發行了「中國銀行長城環球通自由行精彩南非信用卡」，成為南非致力於不斷為中國遊客打造精彩、順暢旅行體驗的又一裡程碑。
To make the travel experience even more seamless from China, South Africa has established visa facilitation centres in nine Chinese cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Xian, Shenyang, Wuhan, Jinan and Hangzhou. The recent launch of a new 『BOC Inspirational South Africa FIT Credit Card』 in partnership with Bank of China is another milestone in making the South Africa experience even more appealing and accessible.
