By Award-winning chef, Anwar Abdullatief & celebrity chef Yolani Abrahams.
Founders of the fine-dining halal restaurant,
The Happy Uncles
At Barakat, we bring you the culinary expertise of Chef Anwar Abdullatief, the mastermind behind South Africa's first fine dining Halaal restaurant, The Happy Uncles. Drawing inspiration from his Cape Malay heritage and decades of experience in some of the country’s top kitchens, Anwar's creations are a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. Each dish tells a story, from his childhood memories to his passion for foraging and surfing along South Africa’s coast.
Located in the heart of Cape Town’s bustling Time Out Market, Barakat offers an immersive Halaal dining experience where every meal is infused with the rich, distinctive flavors of Cape Malay cuisine. Expect to savor signature dishes like Denningvleis, slow-braised beef shin, and more — all reimagined with a contemporary twist while staying true to their roots.
Whether you’re here for the ambiance, which combines the charm of Cape Malay culture with modern touches, or to embark on a culinary adventure unlike any other, Barakat is a celebration of flavor, culture, and creativity. Welcome to a dining experience that’s as refined as it is soulful.
