The two along with another friend, travelled through the township, spoke to some locals who recognised them from social media.
They finally ended up at a restaurant where they were ready to try the traditional Zulu dish called inyama yenhloko.
"Inyama yenhloko is a traditional dish associated with the Zulu culture. The term translates to "meat from the head" in Zulu. It refers to the preparation of the head of an animal, typically a cow, sheep, or goat, where various parts of the head are cooked and eaten, including the cheeks, tongue, and sometimes the brain," according to Taste Atlas.
Delicacies such as inyama yenhloko are a true delight in many communities that savour all parts of animal meat. KwaZulu-Natal is popular for offal, which is not always highlighted but a prized meal.
Yung Earn, who has eaten it before, described it as fatty and tender.
