Procurement is the part of running a hospitality business that most independent operators learn through trial and error. There is no formal training. There are no industry-standard playbooks written for the 12-room guesthouse or the 40-seat restaurant. There is just accumulated experience, some of it expensive.

Here are ten things that experience consistently teaches, gathered into one place. https://www.myhospitalitypal.com/post/10-things-every-independent-south-african-hospitality-operator-should-know-about-procurement-in-2025

"Rupesh, the architect of this walking culinary tour through Cape Town’s streets, believes food is a universal language that has the potential to connect people from all walks of life. His love affair with food began after a decade-long career in banking when he left the corporate world to set off on a journey into the culinary world as a chef. This led him to Johannesburg and Zanzibar where he worked in restaurants and later became a food critic. After moving to, and falling in love with Cape Town, he set up Eat Like a Local to introduce visitors to the cultural diversity, robust history and the one-of-a-kind cullinary experiences that Cape Town has to offer. .."

"If ever there was a city with a pulse, it’s Joburg. It’s energy charging to produce a breakneck velocity. Decades after leaving the place of her birth, Pippa de Bruyn dives in, witnesses prosperity and decay, experiences beauty and kindness, and gets her fill of an intoxicating elixir..."

In celebration of the gastronomic variety available in South Africa’s townships we decided to serve up some of our favourite township dishes from some of the tours on our platform. This is pure unadulterated kasi food indulgence. And having said that we are not responsible for any drooling that may occur while you’re reading this. Bon appetite!

Travelling exposes you to new ways of thinking, ways of seeing the world and presents alternative perspectives from different cultures. Every country and community will have a set of customs, norms and traditions that might differ from your own. For that reason it’s important to familiarize yourself with the culturally specific norms of the place you’re visiting to make the journey more enjoyable and of course not to offend your host nation or community. While we can’t account for all the contrasting customs and traditions of the world, we can give you few tips that apply universally and which we think will make you a grade-A visitor.

We’re huge fans of road trips. There’s no better way to see the country. There’s the open road, the adventure of it all, travelling with people who are just as crazy as you are, singing at the top of your lungs without a care in the world (so pick your mates carefully), stopping for food in the middle of nowhere, and because it just looks so damn cool when they do it in the movies. With a country that has some of the most beautiful and diverse landscapes in the world, you shouldn’t even need any of these reasons to hit the open road. You have the perfect backdrop for a cross-country epic and very little excuse not to pack your car this Easter and discover the full splendor and hospitality of your country.
