When, where? 

Date:      Saturday, 27 May 2023

Time:     12:00 until 17:00

Venue:   Brooklyn Bridge, 570 Fehrsen St, Brooklyn, Pretoria

Booking link:https://qkt.io/A7dhaV



How does the competition on 27 May work?
Chefs and farmers who grow indigenous and heritage crops working together: 
Ten of South Africa’s top chefs have had multiple meetings with a community of small farmers in the village of Strydkraal Limpopo. The farmers grow heritage and indigenous crops and breed Nguni heritage cattle. 
The rules of the competition say that the chefs must use Nguni beef and traditional vegetables to create delicious and innovative dishes. 

What sorts of ingredients will be used?

The chefs may use any indigenous and/ or heritage ingredients that the Strydkraal farmers can produce. Examples of possible ingredients include morogo (such as thepe, leroto, morogo wadinawa etc), gourds such as lerotse and beans such as ditlou(also known as Bambara nuts and jugo beans). 

What sort of food will there be? New African Cuisine

The idea is for chefs to take traditional ingredients and reconfigure them in modern ways. The use of ingredients must be authentic and respectful but also exciting and innovative. Expect New African Cuisine at its finest. 



How can listeners taste this exciting, innovative food? 
There are only 240 tickets for the food. These tickets cost R895 a head. For this ticket price diners get 7 plates plus wine. 
Those who don’t want/ cant afford to pay R895 can visit the event, watch the chefs cook and savour similar but less fancy food made using traditional ingredients at food stalls.



What is Sommelier Magwaza doing? 

Multi award winning sommelier Moses Magwaza is presenting indigenous food and wine pairing master class sessions at the event at a cost of R250 per person.
