Mzoli's Meats is a butcher, restaurant, and nightclub in Capetown, South Africa.

Description

Located in Gugulethu township, a poor Black neighborhood, the restaurant attracts important politicians and television stars, famous DJs such as DJ Fresh, as well as college students, businesspeople, travellers, and college students. It is a "base camp" where "black diamonds" (a local term for an upwardly-mobile class of township-based Blacks who are at home in the corporate world) gather and network.

The restaurant serves as a "do-it-yourself" market, selling meat to patrons who in turn hire independent entrepreneurs running stalls on the grounds to prepare meals.. Owner Mzoli Ngcawuzele obtained start-up funding from the Development Bank of South Africa, which was designed to support black-owned businesses.
