A new South African spot has debuted in the neighborhood. The fresh addition, called The Zulu Hut, is located at 67 Bow St.
Start with the lamb meatballs, baked in saffron-spiced tomato sauce and served over couscous. Then move on to the Cape Malay Curry, oven-roasted chicken thighs, potatoes and onions doused in a spicy tomato-based broth and served with yellow rice. Finally, top off your meal with South African apple cake, featuring roasted apples folded into a buttery yellow cake topped with housemade crème fraîche.
With a five-star rating out of four reviews on Yelp so far, The Zulu Hut has been warmly received by patrons.
Ken G., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on March 1, wrote, "Our daughter lived in Johannesburg for many years, so we visited many times and became familiar with South African cuisine. All the dishes our party ordered at Zulu Hut were delicious and were authentic to our memory of what we ate in South Africa."
And Renee V. wrote, "With so many fantastic places to eat in downtown Portsmouth, it's easy to overlook this gem. Get in here! Try the South African fish cakes and the lamb stew, as well as the fantastic South African wines and cocktails. The views are just as incredible as the meal!"
Intrigued? Stop in to try it for yourself. The Zulu Hut is open from 5–9 p.m. on Tuesday-Saturday. (It's closed on Monday and Sunday.)
