I am not easily convinced to drive to Fourways, an outer suburb about 30 minutes north of central Joburg. And when I first started my roadhouse series, it was my intention to focus solely on “old” roadhouses that opened in the 20th century and stood the test of time.
As an American blogger in Joburg, it is my moral obligation to inform the public about the appearance of authentic bagels in this city. Although there are many imposters floating around, real, boiled bagels – crusty on the outside, chewy on the inside, served with real cream cheese – are few and far between. So I’m popping in here quickly to let you know about Bird’s Bagels, a semi-secret weekend bagel pop-up in Blairgowrie.

Yesterday I made a quick solo lunch run to Senhor Galo’s, a brand-new roadhouse in Edenvale.

On a Saturday night in late June, 2021 – before I flew from South Africa to America and back again – Thorsten and I ate dinner at the Burger Box Roadhouse in Krugersdorp (northwest of the city on Joburg’s West Rand). There are several Burger Boxes around Gauteng, but I chose Krugersdorp because that location received particularly rave reviews from my readers.
