Gourmets & Gourmands Culinary Festival

 

Pair Excellence! Gourmets & Gourmands mingles with food and wine.

It is that time of the year again when Gourmets & Gourmands mingles with food and wine. This year chef's from 15 restaurants, the South Africa Chefs Association (SACA) , the local Chaine de Rotisseurs and the Francois Ferreira Academy of Food will each prepare a four-course meal for 180 guests on the school premises.

The themes of the Gourmets and Gourmands vary and this year the theme will be "Roaring Twenties", with guests dressing up in the sophisticated style of that bygone era. Classic cars provided by the South Cape Old Car Club will add a touch of class to the setting.

Restaurants and wine farms are already putting the final touches to their menu pairings, according to a famous foodie, pairing is an expression of a lifelong exploration of wine and food, an endeavor of passion; a passion to be shared. The popularity of food and wine pairings has increased in recent years, so much so that it has become commonplace to adding wine pairing as something special to the usual dining experience.

So, whilst the decadence of the evening's events is festive, there is more to it as the funds raised will go towards the learners of and fantastic work done at the Carpe Diem School.
