I must say I have tasted Tamil South Indian food Sri Lankan Tamil food but South African Tamil food is the best it encorporates the best of s. Indian cuisine with good elements from the north.
Generally i think it is the same as Mauritian does anyone from Mauritius or Reuni0on have any comments to amke on this.
if anyone is interested in particualr recipes I can post them

  well its philosophy is about fusion and adaptation to SA. There are some N. Indian influences, Malay influences, Chinese influences and African/Creole influences but all have a S. Indian basis - prominent use of curry leaf, dhaniya stems and leaves, Ginger Garlic, Chillies, Roasted Curry Powder/Masala and the use of paruppu as spices.
  There are meat dishes, Fish, and of course veg.
  If there is something in particular that you want a recipe for then say so and I will post it if i can or post the nearest equivalent

  I would love to know if you have recipes for:
  Vadda,"fish" and "crab" curry with tamarind, a thin soup called "king soup" or "russou",tomato chutney,"chicken" and "lamb" biriyani. Please forgive any wrongly spelled words as i left Durban a long time ago. I have never come across any dishes in London that can compare with those tastes i remember as a child.I would also like any other recipes you may have.
