Re: Essential Camping Equipment
We also did some shopping at Phalaborwa over December but they didn’t have a huge variety of braai meat. They only had steak or t-bone. Nothing else
Next trip to the bush??

Re: Essential Camping Equipment
Where did you buy, Alf? The best place for meat in Phalaborwa is Makhoma, good quality and best prices.

They don't keep much in the front fridge, but if you ask they will cut what you need and vacuum pack it. You can even phone and pre-order.

You must bring your own cow, Alpheus. This is Phalaborwa.

Re: Essential Camping Equipment
I was surprised by the number of supermarkets in Phala for such a small town and they are always full. I suppose that the mine has made it a well to do town. It is enough to have a look at the cars that go to and from the mine. When I went to the park, I saw them coming and when I came back, I saw them leaving.

Re: Essential Camping Equipment
One thing they couldn’t help with was chicken. They said it’s too humid in Phalaborwa and the fresh chicken doesn’t last in the fridge.Sprocky wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 8:28 amThey don't keep much in the front fridge, but if you ask they will cut what you need and vacuum pack it.

You go to a vegetable shop for chicken, not a butcher.Alf wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 4:03 pmOne thing they couldn’t help with was chicken.
