Madame
Zingara - City Centre
(reviewed 29/10/2004)
Pasta and vegetarian items
feature prominently but
you probably shouldn't resist the fillet medallions
with chocolate-chilli sauce.
Party vibe & excellent service. |

fantastical African-inspired décor is nothing
short of awesome. By day, it all looks a little too
much like theyd hired George Lucas as a stylist;
by night, its pure magic, with braziers, fountains,
lights strung in the trees and beautiful wrought-iron
lanterns. Its a little bit of Mali, a little bit
of Morocco, and a heck of a lot of imagination. Ask
to be seated in the Moyo forest, with dining platforms
in the tree-tops and secluded gazebos with comfortable
couches. The food is great! |

Not many places will beat this one. |
