John Dorys Menu Best Seller
John Dorys hasn’t grown to where they are today by serving up average seafood and sushi – quite the opposite really. And although their menu is relatively small, compared to some of the other seafood giants in South Africa such as the vast range of seafood on the menu at Ocean Basket, John Dorys menu still packs a flavourful punch.
If you’re looking to try out some of their most popular food from the get-go, you should look no further than their classic Hake & Chips combo. For just R79.00, you’ll get either tempura-battered or grilled hake fillet served with coleslaw and a healthy portion of chips as well. Delicious.
Hake is arguably the most popular fish to eat in South Africa, so there may be a high chance you’ve recently eaten it already. If that’s the case for you, switch it up a bit and try out John Dorys’ Calamari Strips. Fresh, perfectly battered, and paired with a tasty tartar sauce. Yum.
Are taste buds starting to get excited? Keep them in line because there’s more to come.
John Dorys has also spent a fair amount of time on its sushi menu, and they’ve certainly done well for themselves. It’s a minority, but the customers who visit John Dorys to enjoy their sushi are some of the most loyal and valuable because they keep coming back.
If you’re just starting out on their sushi menu, give the classic Rainbow and California Rolls a go – both excellent introductions to the wide range that lies ahead.
Of course, if you’re more the type to dive right in, they have plenty of sushi platters with samples of many styles to enjoy as well.
Sushi is quickly gaining in popularity across South Africa as well. Simply Asia, a Thai-style restaurant consistently opening new locations across the country, also has a great range of sushi to enjoy on its menu.
In the end, if different styles of fresh seafood are what you’re after, head down to your local John Dorys – you’ll be fantastically satisfied when you walk out their doors.
