Gourmets & Gourmands Fees - Carpe Diem Skool in George


Gourmets & Gourmands Fees - Carpe Diem Skool in George

Die tweede jaarlikse sitting van Carpe Diem Skool in George se Gourmets & Gourmands feesete vind plaas op 28 Augustus en die opwinding is behoorlik besig om monde te laat water, nie net vir die gastronomiese fees vir die oog en vir die maag wat voorsit gaan word vir gaste nie, maar spesifiek vir die opwindende verskeidenheid lotte wat opgeveil gaan word ten bate van die Carpe Diem Skool.


Verskeie deelnemende restaurant van die Tuinroete en Klein Karoo

What a lot I’ got - Met verlede jaar se veiling nog vars in die geheue van gaste, is die gedagte aan die veiling net so aptytwekkend soos die spyskaarte van die verskeie deelnemende restaurant vandie Tuinroete en Klein Karoo. Die heerlike kombinasies en interessante avonture wat opgesluit lê in van die lotte laat die ou Smarties slagspreuk behoorlik herleef en sal vir seker nie teleurstel nie.


Gasheer Francois Ferreira van die Eden School of Culinary Art en Glanskok van RSG

Die veilingfee van die geleentheid is niemand anders as die nimlike gasheer Francois Ferreira nie, mede-eienaar van die Eden School of Culinary Art en Glanskok van RSG se immergewilde Huiskok-Glanskok program. Sy skerp sin vir humor en pittige kwinkslae beloof om van die veiling ‘n geleentheid van formaat in eie reg te maak.


Naweekpakette by eksotiese Suid-Afrikaanse bestemmings en uitsoekwyne
Van die lipleklekker lotte waarop gaste die aand van die geleentheid hulle hande kan lê is naweekpakette by eksotiese Suid-Afrikaanse bestemmings en uitsoekwyne van die betrokke wynplase wat enige wynkenner na ‘n droomwêreld van smaak en aroma sal vervoer. Daar gaan ook ‘n verskeidenheid skilderye opgeveil word; sommige wat deur Carpe Diem se eie aspirant Van Gogh’s geskilder is en ander wat geskenk is vir die fondsinsamelingsgeleentheid.
Alle skilderye kan hierdie week nog besigtig word by Calorosso Coffee in Meade Straat, een van die deelnemende restaurante.

om te hoor of daar dalk ‘n kansellasie of twee was. As jy wel jou kaartjie het kan jy vandag soos een van die 5 uitverkorenes voel wat elk ‘n Willie Wonka Goue Kaartjie gekry het in Roald Dahl se klassieke verhaal van “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”, want elke lot is jou beskore en die tafel van vele is reeds gedek, wagtend op jou besoek.

Gourmets & Gourmands festival at the Carpe Diem School in George, South Cape


Gourmets & Gourmands: There’s perfect harmony in food & wine pairing

Food and wine pairing for the connoisseur and the food lover

One thing we all remember from either taking home economics or dating someone who did, is that you have to include all basic food groups in order to create a healthy balanced meal. So it stands to reason that, to most of us, the term food pairing implies serving some vegetables with a portion of carb’s and meat. But to the expert, the connoisseur and even the food lover, the term implies that you have a little Van Gogh in you coupled with a bit of Brangelina; flair and chemistry.

Wine and food pairing is the process of matching food dishes with wine to enhance the dining experience. In many cultures, wine has had a long history of being a staple at the dinner table, and in some ways both the winemaking and culinary traditions of a region will have evolved together over the years.


Gourmets & Gourmands festival at the Carpe Diem School in George

The second annual Gourmets & Gourmands festival at the Carpe Diem School in George takes place on Saturday 28 August 2010.

And until we can get a first-hand taste of how the experts pair, I’ll leave you with this thought. My dearest mother was right about a lot of things in life, but food pairing was clearly not one of them, so I am happy to set the record straight – go ahead, play with your food!
