Mark Wiens was particularly impressed by the engineering and scale of the kota, a massive township sandwich built inside a hollowed-out quarter loaf of bread. He found the combination of multiple meats, sauces, and chips to be an intimidating yet delicious culinary challenge. He also enjoyed the fluffy texture of maponya fat cakes, noting they are a staple breakfast for locals in Soweto.
