OYO Restaurant & Cocktail Bar - Bedfordview

10 Bedford Mews, Bedfordview, Germiston, 2008, South Africa

A last minute cancellation for a music video shoot had the director and me make our way for a quick bite to eat at a nearby mall. A need for a power outlet so that we could carry on working landed us at Oyo Restaurant and Cocktail Bar. A quick set of starters and a few drinks, helped our creative minds get to work. Best of all the dishes in my opinion, was the Hong Kong Pears - Crisp mashed potato dumplings stuffed with a mixture of chicken, duck and prawns and presented in the shape of pears. Impressive on the eyes and the taste buds! The restaurant’s website states that “Oyo” is a Chinese expression meaning “whoa” which is precisely what many are sure to say when they first enter oyo.” Being Chinese, I can see what they’re trying to say, although in my opinion it’s more of an “Ahya!” Regardless of the differences, I will say that the food was pretty good and that it should definitely be given a taste if you’re in the area.
