Rocomamas / Boston Burger Co.

The nice thing about Rocomamas, and presumably Boston Burger, is you can leave there with your dignity intact.

If you eat at the Spur and you don't have kids... well, that's just weird.

Valid point.

Yep.

However here in the Helderberg it is more the location, we have 4 Spurs in my vicinity. Strand used to be nice, now it is meh, Gordon's Bay always sucked, the one at the Mall is kark, but the one at Waterstone Village is rather accommodating, some are clearly better managed.

I sometimes eat at Spur by myself... for lunch, close to the office.
 
Comparing regular pricing vs special pricing is hardly apples vs apples.

How about using the normal Spur pricing and then adding the fact that it's nowhere in the same league?

That being said as Ribs not being RocoMamas primary cuisine I'm not surprised it's a bit more expensive as it's meant to be option that entices you as an extra.

What is amusing is that you are comparing a Spur company to a Spur company.
 
Yea I think CrazyLion is just confused is all. Or he had a special branch.

On the topic of the meals though, I wouldn't compare Spur food to RocoMamas, Rocos is WAAAAY better in my experience.
Rocomamas is owned by Spur. Probably utilise same supply chain.

Exactly +1

So? VW and Bugatti are the same company - which would you rather have? That's not the issue, we're just voicing opinions as to quality of the food, and value of same.

And Spur is 400g vs RocoMamas which is 500g.

So I'd say it's much the same really.

Besides...who eats Beef ribs anyway? Pork! Always!

Huh?

Spur is 600g pork ribs @ R 169-90 (sides inclusive) / 400g pork ribs @ R 129-90 (sides inclusive)

RocoMamas is 250g pork ribs @ R85 / 500g pork ribs @ R165 / 750g pork ribs @ R240
 
I think I'm gonna buy and baste my own ribs this weekend.

Are you a master baster? :D :p

Sounds good, I may do the same, though I haven't had a texan steak in a while, may go that route.

Rocomama's: A Spur-group restaurant for those who just hate Spur.

For those in the West and Northern parts of Gauteng - Berliner butchery have some of the best ribs around.

I usually buy those prepacked pork ribs at the supermarkets and throw them in the oven, but those are really expensive nowadays. Lamb ribs it are mostly nowadays, better on the braai.

His original statement was R140 at RocoMamas which relates to the Beef ribs and aren't even listed by Spur.

For the lack of sides and the improvement in quality it's much of a muchness really.
