想找食肆做冬的確不易,團購日式放題已爆滿,一月份只剩少量時段供選擇,終於給我找到中環的團購非洲菜 ( Makumba Africa Bar Lounge),不竟老外並沒有這個節日!晚上八時卅分到達,live band 已開始演奏,良久,仍沒有人接待,非洲鼓手按奈不住上前招呼,侍應被驚動了! 我們被安排到柱後的一張枱,最後一張,無得投訴! 所謂音樂原來並非穿著全身非洲服飾表演非洲鼓那種,而是以非洲鼓配合現代電子結他的流行音樂,歌聲不算出色但非洲人的節奏感一向是衆所周知的。其間唱出一首鄧麗君名曲,更搏得在埸華人熱烈掌聲。回說食物,餐湯有點像冬蔭功,魚柳應是鯰魚柳,牛肉亦像茶餐廳的咖喱牛肉,倒是雞肉較有嚼頭,份量亦較多呢! 小食的非洲肉丸頗有質感,令人想像到非洲的一種原始的粗獷感,它和春卷一樣,頗辣。一直有一個疑問:「只得不到十張小枱,席上多為團購客,怎樣維持運作經費?」當十時後一批批的老外進埸才知那時才是黄金時段的開始......單就食物,最多只值五十元,但以live band的成本來說,每人連加一所付出的百三元又算合理

想找食肆做冬的確不易,團購日式放題已爆滿,一月份只剩少量時段供選擇,終於給我找到中環的團購非洲菜 ( Makumba Africa Bar Lounge),不竟老外並沒有這個節日!
晚上八時卅分到達,live band 已開始演奏,良久,仍沒有人接待,非洲鼓手按奈不住上前招呼,侍應被驚動了! 我們被安排到柱後的一張枱,最後一張,無得投訴!

所謂音樂原來並非穿著全身非洲服飾表演非洲鼓那種,而是以非洲鼓配合現代電子結他的流行音樂,歌聲不算出色但非洲人的節奏感一向是衆所周知的。其間唱出一首鄧麗君名曲,更搏得在埸華人熱烈掌聲。

回說食物,餐湯有點像冬蔭功,魚柳應是鯰魚柳,牛肉亦像茶餐廳的咖喱牛肉,倒是雞肉較有嚼頭,份量亦較多呢! 小食的非洲肉丸頗有質感,令人想像到非洲的一種原始的粗獷感,它和春卷一樣,頗辣。

一直有一個疑問:「只得不到十張小枱,席上多為團購客,怎樣維持運作經費?」當十時後一批批的老外進埸才知那時才是黄金時段的開始......

單就食物,最多只值五十元,但以live band的成本來說,每人連加一所付出的百三元又算合理

等位時間是0分鐘,但等上菜的時間差不多一個鐘食物味道不錯但說不上很美味,歌手也很好,但等上菜實在太慢了。出餐跟團購的不乎,我買了十人份量的,但他們欠了兩杯餐飲及沒有給我們甜品(我們有問他是否全部菜都上了,他們說是) 不過後來看團購餐牌他們是漏了甜品。什麼東西都要等很久,差不多一個小時才有主菜。有用團購另再點菜及酒,每人都要HKD300,不算便宜。

23.8.2011用團購買了四張coupon, 一心想與好姊妹一齊去試下非洲菜. 怎料, 大家都失望而回. 我們有四個人, 所以有機會每一款都試下. 每張coupon都可以換一個套餐, 而每個套餐包括一個前菜, 一個主菜及一杯汽水.前菜有三款選擇, 共通點是乾爭爭的, 如果有醬汁點綴一下就好了:Babele 這是甜馬鈴薯, 薯仔片真的幾甜的, 腍腍地, 但好乾. 辣肉丸 這是碎牛肉丸配非洲香料, 牛肉丸腍腍地, 非洲香料好辣, 牛肉丸好乾身. 非洲春卷 外層炸到好脆, 很油膩. 春卷內有少少雞肉及洋蔥, 味道很咸, 也很乾.主菜也有三個選擇, 共通點都是, 好難吃....Kedjenou 從團購網站的介紹, 得知這道菜需要較長的烹調過程, 雞肉吸收了蔬菜的香氣, 薯仔或香蕉葉被用作蓋子. 但實際上, 這道菜只是用一個小碗仔盛載住一些雞塊+紅蘿蔔粒+菜+汁. 雞塊份量好少, 肉並不嫩滑. 味道怪怪的, 咸咸的, 雖然伴著白飯來吃, 但也覺得好咸, 好重味精. Pork in beer sauce 這是紅燒肋骨配啤酒汁. 老實說, 我們吃這個肋骨時, 根本感覺不到啤酒味, 反而覺得無味,

這是甜馬鈴薯, 薯仔片真的幾甜的, 腍腍地, 但好乾.

辣肉丸
這是碎牛肉丸配非洲香料, 牛肉丸腍腍地, 非洲香料好辣, 牛肉丸好乾身.

非洲春卷
外層炸到好脆, 很油膩. 春卷內有少少雞肉及洋蔥, 味道很咸, 也很乾.

這是紅燒肋骨配啤酒汁. 老實說, 我們吃這個肋骨時, 根本感覺不到啤酒味, 反而覺得無味, 哈哈, 不知道他們是用什麼啤酒來煮呢? 肋骨無什麼肉, 骨好大件, 真的'食之無味'.

這是非洲煎魚配蕃茄醬汁, 這條煎魚都不知是什麼魚, 好細條, 無什麼肉, 多骨, 味道好腥. 所謂的蕃茄醬汁其實是一些蕃茄條鋪在那條魚上, 一點汁也沒有. 乾爭爭的, 雖有白飯, 但不知道怎樣伴著白飯吃了.

這裡的裝飾富有民族色彩, 又有黑人表演非洲音樂. 本來環境也看來不錯的, 但食物實在太差了. 我們不知道是否因為團購而將貨就價, 總之我們對這間餐廳已經完全失望了. 儘管我們是很肚餓, 但我們已經沒有意欲去食, 只專注影相和傾計, 於是我們食剩了不少. 離開這餐廳之後, 我們去了另一間茶餐廳醫肚哩.

這晚約了幾個fd 來這裡用coupon, 因為快到期了, book 了21:15, 應該是團購臨近尾聲大家都訂台了. $90 一個set 能夠一試非洲菜, 可以接受.9時許入面人也很多, 坐無虛席, 坐的大多是團購的港客, 而在出面跳舞飲啤酒的都是外國人, 可看到其分別.menu先來汽水我們點餐後食物遲遲都未上來, 過了半個鐘才一碟appetizer. 有春卷, 肉丸, 蕃薯角, 味道不錯, 肉丸好味, 外面燒得乾身又能鎖住肉汁, 肉亦打得鬆, 還有辣汁配點, 辣得來有點苦. 春卷都很好, 入面有肉, 有點特別香料味, 我挺喜歡這個, 比酒樓的好.Main course 侍應替我們選了, 一雞一豬兩魚, 即管trust him.3款main course 都麻麻地. 雞肉有點鞋, 豬也有點鞋和韌, 較好的是烤魚, 但就太多骨了, 在暗夜環境下的確很難去骨, 連朋友最後都放棄了.反而side 的飯做得不錯, 不是普通的飯, 是下的一些油撈過的, 食落有點鹹味. 只食飯都可以了.由於我們來的時候是星期三, 所以這裡有免費阿根廷舞看, 我們還可以走出去跳, 有人會教, 我走的時候送我們出門口

3款main course 都麻麻地. 雞肉有點鞋, 豬也有點鞋和韌, 較好的是烤魚, 但就太多骨了, 在暗夜環境下的確很難去骨, 連朋友最後都放棄了.
反而side 的飯做得不錯, 不是普通的飯, 是下的一些油撈過的, 食落有點鹹味. 只食飯都可以了.


由於我們來的時候是星期三, 所以這裡有免費阿根廷舞看, 我們還可以走出去跳, 有人會教, 我走的時候送我們出門口的那侍應還一邊跳一邊送行, 我又跟著他跳了兩下, 怎料他拉了我出去跳了. 好在得朋友相救.


其實這裡氣氛不錯, 有live band 有人跳舞, 但我不太習慣環境太黑及上菜速度真的非常慢.

非洲美食,在香港鮮為人知,若果不是團購介紹,我倆都沒有機會接觸這間酒吧。終於上周中有機會親臨這店,由於位置不易找到,入到以後人煙稀少,我倆就很快點了餐。先來的是兩道前菜--春卷和肉丸,味道很香口,為絕佳的開胃小食。接著是餐湯,夠滑。兩道主菜味道就一般,但我倆都能夠將它們吃清光,可見賣相吸引。吃完晚餐後,才是戲肉所在--流行樂隊的表演(因我聽懂少許法語,知道是來自多哥Togo)。聽歌相比晚餐,這個才是今次的重點,我倆深深感受到其特色的文化,令我倆大開眼界。到樂隊休息時,才盡興地結束這個特色的美食和音樂之旅!

號稱香港唯一的非洲吧很多人會期望吃很多很棒的非洲菜但事實上該吧的可供選擇的食物不多價錢也偏貴~因為該吧成立的目的是推廣非洲的音樂根據老闆娘的說法,她想用影響全世界流行樂(eg. rap, jazz, hip hop )的非洲音樂來豐富很淺的香港酒吧音樂文化~所以大家於此餐廳進餐時不要有錯誤的期望、定位因為非洲文化體驗才是主菜本人只用了一小時用餐但卻聽了近三個小時的band show~講回食物本身總括是不錯的, 但是否物有所值就見仁見智本人跟友人兩人共叫了2個小吃1個甜品2杯飲料首先是雞肉春卷, 有點辣, 但表皮脆度焦度剛剛好, 蠻好吃的(HKD75)跟著叫了個炸香蕉片, 有點過膩過韌了, 還是新鮮不炸的最好吃(HKD55)甜品我叫了朱古力心太軟(連雪糕球), 蛋糕質感對了, 内裏的朱古力漿濃稀度也對了, 不過稍為過甜(HKD80)最後我喝了一杯橙汁, 毫無懸念的是果汁先生 (30多塊! 不過總比酒精便宜多了)氣氛是最佳一環因為掛飾, 傢具, 燈光的配搭很Cafe加上非洲fusion南美的world music live band表演絕對是香港餐廳獨一無二的~(剛好用餐那晚有人生日, 樂

號稱香港唯一的非洲吧
很多人會期望吃很多很棒的非洲菜
但事實上該吧的可供選擇的食物不多
價錢也偏貴~

因為該吧成立的目的是推廣非洲的音樂
根據老闆娘的說法,
她想用影響全世界流行樂(eg. rap, jazz, hip hop )的非洲音樂
來豐富很淺的香港酒吧音樂文化~

所以大家於此餐廳進餐時
不要有錯誤的期望、定位
因為非洲文化體驗才是主菜
本人只用了一小時用餐
但卻聽了近三個小時的band show~

講回食物本身總括是不錯的, 但是否物有所值就見仁見智
本人跟友人兩人共叫了2個小吃1個甜品2杯飲料
首先是雞肉春卷, 有點辣, 但表皮脆度焦度剛剛好, 蠻好吃的(HKD75)
跟著叫了個炸香蕉片, 有點過膩過韌了, 還是新鮮不炸的最好吃(HKD55)
甜品我叫了朱古力心太軟(連雪糕球), 蛋糕質感對了, 内裏的朱古力漿濃稀度也對了, 不過稍為過甜(HKD80)
最後我喝了一杯橙汁, 毫無懸念的是果汁先生 (30多塊! 不過總比酒精便宜多了)

氣氛是最佳一環
因為掛飾, 傢具, 燈光的配搭很Cafe
加上非洲fusion南美的world music live band表演
絕對是香港餐廳獨一無二的~
(剛好用餐那晚有人生日, 樂隊還唱奏了一段特別版本的生日歌)

就是廚房的效率很低
(好像只有一兩個人煮食,
洗餐具的則肯定只有一人)
侍應也動作挺慢的
對我而言扣了不少分數
畢竟食物很貴還要加一

最後我基於本餐廳食物收費價值
是在於Live Band演唱會和氣氛
遠多於食物本身
所以給了一個笑

這間餐廳請我都唔會再去。一去到就有個waiter就話“Do you have reservation?" 但其實間野好空,冇乜人,唔明點解要BOOK位。之後同講完一輪英文,佢又聽唔明。 終於坐低叫嘢食,D食物一般,個meat ball D肉粉到不得了,一D都比唔上我以前係南非食個D。份量小,唔飽,又唔抵。話哂係set dinner, 冇理由得咁少野食。衛生馬馬,我見有個waiter插隻手指落D菜度,好噁心!!!!我見幾位waiter會走去外藉人士枱問"is everything fine?do you need anything else?"但一個人來問我地都無要個辣椒醬都要搵好耐先有人過來,D食物又係等左成半粒鐘先上。Oh and they are just too busy with too few staff to handle the customers. Service definitely poor.

African food in Hong Kong? Sounds interesting
, and given Open Rice's initial positive reviews we decided to give it a try. Having made the trek all the way up the slope (we wanted to build up an appetite, so we didn't take the escalator) we arrived just as they were opening, only to be told that the place was fully booked for the night and the following week and we would need to make a reservation next time. Tired and hungry were disheartened and more determined than ever to try Makumba... after all, it was popular enough to be booked solid a week in advance!

Next time, we booked a table and arrived right at 6. The place was empty and the staff were busy getting the place ready. There was no table set aside for us and we were told to sit anywhere... so much for booking in advance. After reading the menu we waited for somebody to take our order... but nobody came for about 20 minutes. We just sat there and played with our cutlery and admired the spooky tribal decor. After we finally got their attention, our orders were taken... and we waited another 20 minutes for our food to arrive. With no other patrons in the restaurant, we could only assume the chef hadn't begun his shift yet, or was still drunk on the floor.

The appetizers were kinda lame. Spicy meatballs looked to be deep fried and hard as rubber. The mini eggrolls were crispy, but I couldn't tell you what was in them without looking at the menu description.

Our main courses consisted of a chicken stew, and fried fish. The stew was bony and the portion was very very small, served with rice and a very small bit of cabbage (for color, I assume, because there was no way it could even be considered a side as the portion probably amounted to a cabbage leaf the size of a post-it note). The fish was probably the boniest fish in the entire ocean. After picking out all the bones, we probably had enough meat to fill a shot glass.


The positive reviews really puzzle us, and we were left thinking that an authentic African culinary adventure had somehow eluded us. But then again, if an "authentic" African meal requires that you leave hungry, then this is your place!

Recommended dishes: Meat-flavored Rubber Balls, Mini Eggrolls with Mystery Filing, Nearly Vegetarian Bony Chicken Stew, Fried Fish Skeleton with Limp Cabbage Garnish

Reading the previous review - it was a shame we didn't know abt the Group On offer - we paid almost $250 per person
and vowed to come back with it, but after our visit the only thing I'll come back for is the live band.

The food

The 1st thing we were asked by the waiter was "did we have the Group On voucher" and were disappointed to hear that there was
a "special menu" for those customers. So, we chose a-la-Carte. I remember from my 1 visit to an Ethopian restaurant (in North London)
the interesting dish of this pancake-bread with bowls of food that you eat with your hand, by tearing off the bread.
To me delight they did have this on the menu, but they then said we had to order in advance..!
So we ordered a 3-stage platter of snacks. Spicy meatballs which were fine, spring rolls and also battered plantain.
They were ok, not very filling and pretty pricey for what you're getting. We were told that pretty much half the menu
we had to order a day in advance?!

The drinks

Drinks were African-inspired cocktails and the usual selection. Tried 4 cocktails between us they were
fine but interesting how it was Happy Hour and still ended up costing $73 each (abt $95+ normal price).

Service, decor and music

This was a highpoint, the band is very good. Decor is well-done and looks great. Lighting is dimmed, good for couples
on a date but also some areas used for large group gatherings.

4. The drink is a small cup only, need to order extra beer otherwise feel so thirsty

I don't think such kind of food and service is acceptable in Central.
Especially for the hygiene, the dirty food makes me no mood to eat at all

在團購網看到有優惠,買了兩個特式晚餐(頭盤+主菜+甜品):頭盤選了肉丸及雞翼,兩者都煎得較乾身,帶點香料很惹味。侍應問我們要不要辣椒醬,也要了一點。辣椒醬帶點薑,味道不錯。主菜也有好幾款選擇,看著那陌生的菜名有點懊惱,唯有亂點,點了魚及okra sauce with beef and vegetables。主菜份量也不少,魚枊大大塊,肉很滑,醬汁酸酸甜甜很開胃;珍珠米夠香夠飯味仲好煙韌!另一款似係雜菜燴牛腩,牛腩可能煮得太耐好韌,但醬汁不錯,也夠特別 - 好黏好杰!羊角豆有益腸胃,切開後會有很多黏液流出來,餐廳將羊角豆切成茸,黏液做醬汁,起初唔係好食得慣,但配埋那粉團食都幾好味。甜品是生果沙律,應該浸左少少糖水,糖水不太甜,生果新鮮爽脆。套餐不含飲品,要了一杯可樂及啤酒,落bar飲可樂,承惠三十五個大洋,好肉赤!店內布置很有特色,侍應也nice,但門口“玄關“位置較暗,可能會令遊人卻步...這裏有現場音樂,可惜我們趕著要去看電影,快快食完快快閃,無緣欣賞了。希望下次黎可以hea住食hea住聽音樂!

My friend from a business chamber recommended this place for my wife and I to have an Africa experience. We have arrived this place around 7:00pm and it was really an amazing experience. We have ordered the food and drinks the waiter recommended (mind you we had no idea what they will look and taste like). We were very impressed with the food, drinks and also the live music.We will definitely go there again in the near future.

4月22日(星期三)晚,是晚女友又再次因為工作繁忙而未能抽時間學琴,而且有點心情欠佳。為了令女友開心,於是決定和她夜遊中環,輕鬆一晚。在女友未收工前,下午我已在OR做了功課,準備好是晚行程。差不多八點左右,女友好不容易才能收工,我們第一站便是應該是全港祇此一家的南非吧 Makumba Africa Bar 。因為女友曾與友人去非洲,所以她說好想去有非洲特色的地方用餐,但在OR搜尋也祇得這裡,其實我知女友也祇是想找個比較特別一些的地方飲杯野,休息一下,相信這裡也應該適合。這裡位于比較靜的卑利街,若沒有地址,相信要找到這裡比較困難,而且門口寫明祇招待會員,我和女友猶疑了一會才敢入去。入到去地方很大但祇得一檯客,兩位外藉人仕,連侍應也見不到,我們站著等了約一分鐘才有位waitress走出來招呼我們去梳化坐。因為是首站,而且waitress給我們的祇是snack & drink list,所以我們祇點了一杯Nzingha Draught Beer 和 Vaudou,再加一客Spicy Meat Balls。細看店內環境,女友說這裡的佈置很有非洲當地酒吧特色。Nzingha Draught Be

Nzingha Draught Beer :應該是南非獨有的生啤罷,很少見,入口麥味較重,酒味較淡,冰涼順喉,以生啤來說是不錯;
Vaudou:是由菠蘿汁、蘋果汁和奇異果汁攪拌而成,女友說不錯;
Spicy Meat Balls:入口鬆軟嫩滑,肉汁豐富且肉味濃郁,雖然有點辣,但並不霸道,而且留在口中久久未有散去;

可能我們來的時間尚早,人客不多,吃完小食、喝罷飲品後,女友心情已經好了些!好,我們繼續下一站。

係朋友屋企食完住家飯就落樓下飲番杯, 可惜星期六晚好多人, 差不多度度都full house, 最後黎咗makumba, 門口竟然有大大張"歡迎光臨"老套紅地毯 , 有d驚...不過唔緊要, 因為入面既佈置一d都唔大陸, 有live band, 仲有sofa俾我地坐~ 大家都係飲gin, vodka with lime 之類, 冇驚喜冇失望, 不過偶爾感受一下異國風情也不錯p.s. o個度係有dance floor俾人跳舞, 但本人當晚一身師奶落街買報紙既裝束, 未敢踏入dance floor 一步, haha~
