Nelson Rholihlahla Mandela who's former house -turned museum is just a stone throwaway. A few minutes walk will lead you to the Hector Peterson Memorial.
Dumplings are my favourite meals,and I normally prefer sitting by the outside garden to view the neighbourhood while enjoying my meals.

During our Soweto sightseeing we made a lunch stop at Wandie's Place. Unfortunately I do not have any axact adress for this fabolous restaurant, but I would guess any local guide knows where it is.
The restaurant was illegal during apartheid, but has afterwards become quite famous and popular amongst journalists and celebrities.
We tried a little of everything (almost), it was exquisite, I can only remember two meals on the long journey that came close, both served in private homes: in Arusha, Tanzania and on Tarawa, Kiribati. Leave a Comment

 Eating Areas: Outdoors,
Covered Patio, and Indoors by glabah
There is a wide range of food at this facility, with a wide range of prices. Prices range from an omlette at 19 Rand to a Beef Espetada at 76 Rand. Outside the restaurant, there are both open air tables and a covered patio area. Smoking is allowed outside, so it isn't the place to be if it irritates you, though the time I was there I only saw one person light up.
The walls of the inside of the restaurant serve as an art gallery, and you should definitely take time to look at the artwork. The food is not the only way to get a taste of Soweto.
Unlike certain other places I visited, which played warmed over American music, this place was playing genuine African music on its sound system.
While poverty is definitely still an issue in Soweto, this restaurant also demonstrates the other end of Soweto's population: lap top computers and cell phones seemed to be reasonably common with this lunch time crowd.
The day I visited they offered three types of fruit juice (you can get Coke anywhere - so why bother with that?). I decided to have the "Fruit Cocktail" juice. This was pretty good.
The shrimp and seafood platter that I had was also very good, with a wide variety of different types of sea food offering various demonstrations of the restaurant's ability with the various types.
