The only place you're going to find Zambian-influenced food in Patagonia is in this intimate, if somewhat pricey restaurant.Address:

After a solid diet of grilled everything with no sauce, pop into this surprising hit in Puerto Natales, where dishes pop and surprise with an East African flavor.Description:
Herein lies a surprise. Rather than the simple flavors of Patagonian cookery, which tend to capitalize on the natural flavors of the meat and seafoods being cooked, at Afrigonia, the Chilean-Zambian couple (Kamal Nawaz of Zambia and Nathalie Reffer) that runs the place has created a unique kind of fusion cuisine. Using Patagonain incredients such as fish and lamb, and adding flavors from an East African palate, they create unique dishes, such as a ceviche with mango, coconut milk and red onion. Curries and tandoories are complexly-flavored and very popular here as well, the wild salmon cooked perfectly, the shrimp succulent, and since there are only ten tables, you'll want to reserve ahead of time.
