When on the Gold Coast, be sure to make a date and introduce yourself to the hostess with the moistest, Joy Dine. She is welcoming, generous and runs this most unique eatery. Selling wholesale and retail goods from her hometown of South Africa and catering for private functions, most people visit Dine with Joy for the authentic, heart-warming food which she creates. Many South African expats come for the taste of home and locals have embraced the beautiful fare on offer here. From the koeksister (donuts infused with syrup or honey), to the crowd favourite, beef bunny chows (hollowed out half loaf of bread with beef curry filling), family pies, breyani and bobotie (spiced minced meat baked with an egg-based topping), there is plenty to enjoy here. A gourmet discovery, Dine with Joy is a passion project for Joy and it is a pleasure to be a part of it.
