Slow Food - Soweto Eat In 2016

3 September 2016, Soweto, Gauteng

A ground-breaking “first” for South Africa. In collaboration with Slow Food, Izindaba Zokudla (check their website) and the University of Johannesburg, we ran a conference on growing food - anywhere and everywhere - to feed families and the community. Ten chef schools cooked cuts from an Nguni cow “from nose to tail” to include offal. The visitors tasted and voted for the best. Young Soweto “cooks” were given an opportunity to prove to themselves that they were capable of great things. We had music, poetry, talks, local produce stalls and food. Visit the Soweto Theatre. It is incredible. Stunning, state-of-the art architecture and design. What an amazing day.
