Barbecue Nation Presents ‘AFRICA MAGICA’ – The African Food Festival

By Indian Food Freak @IFoodFreak

This summer, take an African Safari through the wild jungles, as Africa comes alive at Barbeque Nation with 'Africa Magica' - the African food festival. Enter the mouth of a fiery, roaring lion and get mesmerized by a feisty ambience with leaves and other ceiling dropdowns. Lose yourself in the wilderness of Africa with cave patterns and glass paintings that adorn the walls.

'Africa Magica' is an African food festival that offers patrons a chance to experience the magic of the mysterious and feral Africa. Signature dishes include Jollof Rice- a popular West African dish containing African rice, tomatoes, onions, spices, cumin and hot red pepper; Tanzanian Shabbat Fish - a traditional fish delicacy made with a blend of Mediterranean spices and olive oil; and PiriPiri Tangdi - PiriPiri (African Bird's Eye Chili) Chicken, which is the most famous barbequed preparation from Africa's Mozambique region.

Get swept away by equally tantalizing vegetarian preparations such as Butternut and Shallot Soup - a velvety rich creamy soup laced with golden fried shallots, with chili peppers that bring out the rich, nutty flavour of the pumpkin perfectly; Mixed Vegetables in Adobo Sauce - raw vegetables soaked in a stock of paprika, oregano, salt, garlic and vinegar that preserve and enhance the flavour. For dessert, sample the Malwa Pudding - a sweet dish containing apricot jam and served with hot custard and ice-cream.

With this African food festival, Barbeque Nation is all revved up to let diners take a walk on the wild side. Visiting guests will be welcomed to a bright and vibrant atmosphere. Tattoo & Face Painting artists will do African based non-permanent tattoos & face paintings.
