A night with friends in Pretoria is always a winner if you have a delicious meal to end off the night! 

The Vetkoek Maleis family believes the eatery will be known as the best in the fast-food industry.

Vetkoek Maleis guarantees the best value.

Vetkoek Maleis originated from the small kitchen of a container bakery in Silverton - owned by Sean and Doraine van Rij. Initially, they produced bread, rusks and cookies at a phenomenal rate only to find there was no market for it. Doraine suggested that they start a small takeaway business - in addition to the bakery.

Doraine van Rij joined the Scenic Drive’s Rian van Heerden to share more about their popular eatery in Gauteng. 

It is an incredible story of how the eatery started. Legendary rugby player, Joost van der Westhuizen wanted to open a sausage saloon and Doraine advised him it was a bad idea. That is how everything happened!
