Human Rights Day on 21 March is one of South Africa’s most important public holidays, a day to reflect on how far we have come and to celebrate the freedoms we enjoy. It is also a perfect excuse to bring the family together around good food.
Why This Holiday Matters
On 21 March 1960, police opened fire on a peaceful protest in Sharpeville, killing 69 people. Today we honour their sacrifice by celebrating our constitutional rights, including the right to dignity, equality, and freedom. It is a day for reflection, gratitude, and togetherness.
The Perfect Braai-and-Takeaway Combo
Here is an idea: fire up the braai for your boerewors and chops, then let us handle the sides and extras. Nobody wants to spend the whole holiday in the kitchen. Our menu is packed with dishes that pair perfectly with a braai spread.
- Loaded fries – the ultimate braai side
- Pizza – because kids always want pizza
- Chicken wings – extra crispy for the win
- Fresh salads – balance out the braai guilt

Fresh pizza, loaded burgers, crispy wings, and more. Delivered to your door.
Make It a Street Party
Round up the neighbours, set up a table outside, and create a potluck-meets-takeaway spread. Everyone brings something, and you fill the gaps with our menu favourites. It is the South African way: community, food, and good conversation.
Check out our family deals for bundles that feed a crowd without breaking the bank. Happy Human Rights Day from all of us at Eat Out The Box.
