Men, women, children and elders, would then take their meal to separate eating areas, laid out in a 'kraal-like' manner, built with local materials to create shelter. These customs are reflected in the Taleni's kitchen/buffet area of today. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in outside Etosha Village restaurants. Buffet meals must be booked in advance.
