What you’ll do:
Contrary to its name, bunny chow does not actually contain any rabbit meat! This dish, however, does bear great significance to South Africa, embodying the nation’s struggles and resistance while it was under apartheid. Find out more about this dish’s rich history and Candice’s life in South Africa over dinner at MCF2022!

Introduce yourself
Hello everyone! I am Candice Nicole Pretorius and I am South African Indian. I love cooking and I love eating! Feeding people, friends and family is the best kind of bonding and fellowship to me!
To me, Home is…
family, culture, food and happiness.
What’s the story behind the dish you are presenting?
Bunny chow was invented as a way to sell food to black people who weren’t allowed to eat in certain restaurants during apartheid. As the food was served in the bread itself, nothing needed to be returned after eating. This way of serving has become popularised and it is now considered an iconic dish.
