Beach Boys Mike Love Was Made To Love South Africa Bunny Chow

The last original member of the Beach Boys that still tours, Mike Love, is performing in Durban, South Africa in December and he hopes to take advantage of the food culture in between rehearsals of “I Was Made To Love Her.”
The pescatarian is hoping to try one of Durbin’s famous dishes–bunny chow.
“I’m well aware of Durban’s reputation,” Love said. “And yes, I sure would try one of those bunny chows, with vegetable curry or perhaps fish.”
Bunny Chow is no lettuce and carrot mix. Nor were any rabbits harmed in the making. Rather the dish, which some speculate was created to serve take out items to blacks and other colored people that weren’t allowed to eat inside restaurants during Apartheid, is the original soup in a bowl–a loaf of bread with a hole in it filled with curry. Originally, it was only served with vegetable curry, then meat reared its ugly head into an otherwise hearty and healthy dish.
If you’re missing a Visa for South Africa, here are some simple instructions for making bunny chow in your kitchen.
