3. QUARTER CHICKEN IN A RED WINE MARINADE WITH SPICY WEDGES

4. MASALA RUMP STEAK GATSBY
Who doesn’t love a lip-smacking, mouth-cramming gatsby? This Cape fave goes glam with rump steak, parmesan, mayo and atchar, but it still gives “slap tjips” a starring role.

5. SPICY TSHOTLHO ON PASTA RIBBONS
This melt-in-the-mouth brisket of beef dish needs time and lots of it. Slow cooking allows its rich tomato and spicy goodness to meld into the fibre of the meat. When done, its umami velvety softness will be ready to crown a pillowy bed of pasta.
