There was a litany of complaints over the spelling of babotjie (bobotie) and the price of a chicken pie for four (R140).

A Cape Town businessman got himself into a little trouble with authorities after he thought he found a clever way to keep his 23 staffers employed during the country’s national lockdown.Meals would be ordered by phone or via WhatsApp from a pared-down menu of comfort food, such as cottage pie. An avocado caprese for four would be R230 and whole roast chicken with potatoes and vegetables would be R275.

But the backlash was swift. Before long, there were questions over how his business was an essential service.
