Cape Town

No, I've not been to Cape Town.  I envy you, your plans.  My "to visit," list is long ... and growing.

Is this your first visit?  I ask, because your original post asks for "...any and all food recommendations. Great local cuisine, street-market type stuff preferred. Open to all!" That gives (me) the impression that it will be new territory, for you.

I wonder if your post is meant to gather experience-based suggestions ... or, to scorn others for travel opportunities, which may not have come their way.

Enjoy your trip.
