RocoMamas a fresh breath of air in city

The long anticipated opening of RocoMamas in Polokwane took place last week and JB Willers, Communications Manager of Powers PNP, managing company of the restaurant, took Polokwane Observer on a tour of the premises at Thornhill Shopping Centre.
Willers explained that the one thing that sets RocoMamas apart from other restaurants is that all food is prepared fresh and from scratch. “Nothing that you eat at our restaurant comes from a packet. Every patty, sauce and side dish is made in our own kitchen using fresh ingredients,” he said.
The restaurant has a rock ‘n roll road house vibe, bringing back the good old days with customers receiving an order menu on entering and have the opportunity to build their own meals, choosing from burgers, ribs, Mexican meals, chicken wings, French fries, salads, sauces and condiments as well as extra toppings.
“RocoMamas has a menu that goes far beyond your typical burger joint; it’s all about customisation. This new concept is a result of the growing appetite for hand-made food and a more personalised dining experience,” says Willers.
The Smashburger concept for which RocoMamas is famous, originated in the United States and refers to the process of smashing a ball of ground beef on a hot grill to seal in the juices, rather than squeezing them out.
This results in a medium to well-done burger that is very juicy.
The restaurant group is also very proud of its incredible milkshake range that includes Oreo, espresso, crème brûlée, peanutology and candyliscious flavours to name a few of the mouthwatering treats.
The funky décor and outside dining area on the deck lends a relaxed and laid back atmosphere to the veue, while the waiters’ efficient service remains top class throughout the day.
RocoMamas is very concious of social media platforms and Willers invites all residents of Limpopo to visit their Facebook page, RocoMamas Polokwane.
