The Dusty Road Township Dining Experience

Experience the vibrant atmosphere of the Chinotimba township with a traditional Zimbabwean meal at Dusty Road. Savor a variety of dishes cooked over an open fire.
Experience a traditional Zimbabwean dining experience in the heart of the Chinotimba township. Enjoy a meal cooked on an open fire, using indigenous ingredients, and served in a rustic and interesting atmosphere.

On arrival, see a big sign and a few peculiar trinkets illustrative of African, certainly Zimbabwean, way of life. Through the gate, be greeted with a very colorful blend of everyday objects – black pots, hand-made brazier, chickens, traffic signs, dishes, and more.

Walk further in and through to the reception area, where there are lots of colors and old household items to brighten your senses and bring feelings of nostalgia for the good old days. The tables are set under welcome shade from the trees.

The furniture and décor is mostly up-cycled from old unconventional items such as doors, cable reels, tins, pots, and so much more, brought to life with various finishing (if any) and colorful chitenge and other fabrics.

Notice a few vegetable patches, common in most Zimbabwean homes. The dishes at Dusty Road are cooked on an open fire, the traditional way. Ingredients are indigenous and mostly what you would find in Zimbabwean kitchens.

The desserts, however, have been given a bit more pizzazz with some more wild ingredients which you may not typically have in a modern Zimbabwean household, but all still found in Zimbabwe.
