Hong Kong -Mexican Restaurant

Last time in H.K. I went to a Mex. restaurant on Hong Kong Is. that was quite good considering. But, they had a sauce from South Africa I believe was Khoisan. That was excellent. I have some friends going to S.A. that will get it for me if I can only tell them what naturally. Anyone care to check it out for me.

Was it a spicy sauce? Could it have been Peri Peri? I was in South Africa and this sauce is at all restaurants.

Do you know if Khoisan is the brand or the type of sauce? Have you tried a web search? Peri Peri is not a brand but a type of sauce. It could be Khoisan is the brand name? I tried a web search and cannot find any type of sauce called Khoisan, so maybe that is the brand name.

There is a Chinese sauce called hoisan which is sort of a barbecue sauce. Perhaps khoisan is a spelling variant?

Hoisan is fairly commonly available in the US.

Khosa or Xhosa are two different spellings, but same tribe. Not a peri peri sauce. Thankyou.
