CHEFS DETAILS
I am a slow food chef following century old techniques, using the freshest organic ingredients and my god given talent to prepare food that you usually do not find in a restaurant.
CHEFS FAVOURITES
A starter - Haddock and roasted pecannut pate served with sesame bread: It is served with a salad.
A soup - Roasted red pepper and tomato soup served with rosemary bread
A main meal - Kudu lasagne. I slow roast the kudu with fresh herbs, juniper berries. I layer the kudu with pasta which I roll paperthin and a bechamel sauce infused with fresh oreganum
A dessert - Curry apple ice cream: The taste of an apple is very delicate when cooking with it especially if done with curry. It is an art to prepare to so that you taste both the apple and curry.
An afterwards - We usually serve bottomless freshly ground coffee/a variety of teas with chocolate truffles
