Guys, I'm new to this country, I'm from East Africa.
I live in Cape Town.

I have been trying to cook rice, but I always end up throwing it into the bin.

Why? The rice feels like plastic, especially when it gets cold.
Someone told just me the reason is that most S.A rice is not as quality as what we eat from East Africa.

All am asking is which/where brand of rice is the best? I have been told if I want quality rice I should look around grocery stores owned by Indians, Malawians etc. But can't find them in the neighbourhood.

Below is the rice which I have been trying to cook. I bought it from Pick n Pay. It tastes very bad.

There might be a war in the coming weeks. Why you came at such short notice? Or are you here to help your brothers fight the police? Gross

Rice is not a staple food in South africa, Rice is not something we care about, Since you are from west Africa go find a Nigerian shop/restaurant and rather buy rice there. there should be plenty of shops in your area.

I never mentioned that I'm from West Africa... but thank you.

Yoh plastic rice, never knew the rice I ate was wrong. Tastic, Spekko, all the same to me.

You eat rice? Thats what Jan Van used to feed slaves back in the day.

Go to

Nigerian/African Grocery Store​

Inside Smoker Deli Shop, 15 Bloem St, Cape Town City Centre, Cape Town, 8000
Plenty of Nigerian rice sold here

Thank you, man. I will pay a visit this coming weekend.

But I don't understand why all the comments are oriented towards West/Nigeria.

Is East = West in South African dialogues?

Ignore the confused white guys, they don't have a clue their right from their left.
That shop is open until 11pm but this is Cape Town, don't go out at night
