About BRAAI
IN SOUTH AFRICA, A BRAAI IS KNOWN AS A SOCIAL MEETING, WHERE FOOD IS PREPARED ON OPEN FIRE. IN AMSTERDAM, BRAAI IS A PLACE TO MEET, TO TALK AND TO ENJOY THE GOOD THINGS IN LIFE.
A long time ago in Southern Africa, early people accidently dropped raw meat into a fire and found out this meat was easier to chew. Experts say this is the early beginning of the Braai we know today.
Many years later the Braai has conquered a central place in the village where the food was prepared on an open fire by one person. Instead of cooking in their own house or hut, people gathered around the fire, chatting and telling stories.
Nowadays, a Braai is known as a social meeting where food is prepared on open fire. Friends and invites are more than welcome and most people bring something to eat. But the main principles from ancient times are still the same; gathering around the fire, chatting and telling stories. Once you’ve experienced a real Braai, you will never forget.
What BRAAI means to us
These are the principles and values we want to express in our venues. Spending time with friends and family, enjoying good food, cold drinks and local goods.
