Medium To Rare

If you are a Vegetarian or a Vegan you might want to skip this post.


But if you love and appreciate meat like many African people do, then the meat section of the Hi-Way market might just be right for you. Not everybody can afford meat and a meal with a hearty tasty piece of meat, a stew of tribe cooked with spices and vegetables is simply and purely considered happiness. And it is.


Every morning the tables are topped up with fresh meat




And there is no lack of intestines as well. For the tribe and liver lovers this is the place to get it.


You can buy every desired part of the animal, inside and outside - if available of course.
All the delicacies that have crowned European butchery tables many years back and that can not be sold anymore nowadays, because of diseases like BSE and Mad Cow disease, can still be found here.


There is never shortage of company


Some ladies work together


and are helping each other with cleaning and cutting the meat into portions, dealing and selling to costumers and every other task that their business entails.


And to safeguard the money two are always better than one.


Others however prefer to work alone


and have their shop space and time to themselves.


You can also order from the ladies if you are looking for something specific like a whole cow head.
They will get it from the farmers that supply them.


This meat when nicely cleaned and prepared is really good, Pelisa explains.
