The book consists of traditional recipes, adapted over time and dating back to 1652, when the first settlers arrived in what is now Cape Town. The cuisine has a large Malaysian, French, Dutch, Portugese, German and African influence resulting in a diverse wealth of flavours. The immense history behind the dishes are described throughout the book, thus giving you a real taste of our passion, struggle, love and tradition.
