Tip: Farm stalls are the South African version of rest stops, many even serving fine cuisine. The country roads and highways are peppered with these quaint shops. With a lack of chain restaurants, these are the perfect stop for bathrooms, local fare, fresh and dried fruit and often a homemade jungle gym for stretching tired little legs. |
