Best Shisanyama in Jozi - Meet Tollie

Give that man a hug! And it’s not only because he’s such a nice guy, but Raymond “Tollie” Booysen’s food is seriously delicious. He’s been serving shisanyama to thousands of customers in Reiger Park for seven years. And nobody get’s enough of his braai. Raymond became “Tollie” at a young age. He laughed and said that when he was a toddler, he apparently loved running around naked, ergo the nickname derived from Afrikaans slang for a penis. But today, it’s a term of endearment and everyone in Reiger Park knows who you’re talking about when you ask for Tollie’s place, aka Monic’s. Monic’s Restaurant is a small take-away joint, curbside along the main drag, with a few tables at its front end. This is where the queues are never ending and, on weekends, even longer. But behind the calm service of Tollie’s frontline staff, a braaing operation on a massive scale happens behind the façade. There’s not a moment when there aren’t chuck steaks grilling beside chicken portions with giant deep fryers churning out slap chips non-stop, Just the aroma of it all makes you hungry.
