Taste Zambian dishes at a Wednesday lunch buffet

Sobre este Tip
Musuku, the restaurant at Southern Sun Ridgeway, serves a traditional buffet on Wednesday lunchtimes, an easy way to meet several local dishes in one sitting. Look for ifisashi, greens cooked in a peanut sauce, and fried kapenta, the small sardines eaten as a snack or with a meal. Eat the nshima by hand, rolling a small ball and using it to scoop up the relish. Arrive early in the lunch service and confirm the buffet is running that week.
