Beira Alta Leaping Frog
Fresh, smoky Portuguese fare with a proudly South African influence.
The philosophy at Beira Alta is a simple one: cook from the heart, using only the freshest ingredients and recipes handed down through generations. Here, Portuguese tradition meets South African tastes in a menu that celebrates both heritage and local flavour. Their seafood dishes – from pan-fried queen prawns to perfectly grilled calamari – are a perennial favourite, meanwhile the smoky aromas from the grill (think deboned half baby chickens, steaks and pregos) are enough to satisfy the South African penchant for meat. If you’re in the market for more traditional Portuguese fare, you’re in luck: there’s a whole page of the menu dedicated to the likes of feijoada (pork-and-bean stew), dobrada (a stew made with tripe, chorizo and pork belly) and succulent trinchado.
Don't leave without trying:
The BA Famous Chicken & Prawn Combo, complete with a grilled half baby chicken, and prawns pan-fried in “mom’s secret sauce”. Pair it with sweet-potato fries or milho frito (crispy-fried cubes of seasoned polenta).
