Three lucky Food&Home readers stand the chance to win a copy of Food Trail South Africa by chef, television host and cookbook author Warren Mendes, valued at R580 each.
Born in Johannesburg and now based in Australia, Warren has spent years building a successful culinary career abroad. But South Africa has always remained close to his heart, inspiring his latest television series, Food Trail: South Africa, and the cookbook that followed.
Filled with recipes featured in the hit Food Network Africa series, Food Trail South Africa celebrates the flavours, traditions and stories that make South African food culture so unique. From comforting classics to regional favourites, the cookbook is a delicious journey through the country’s rich culinary landscape.
Throughout the series, Warren travelled across South Africa, discovering everything from Cape Malay cuisine in the Bo-Kaap and Durban’s vibrant curry culture to bushveld braais and beloved family recipes. Along the way, he uncovered a common thread running through every destination: food’s ability to bring people together.
“Food is almost like a religion in South Africa,” says Warren. “It’s not even about the recipe. It’s about the fact that it sits at the centre of the home.”
The cookbook captures that same spirit, offering readers a chance to recreate the dishes and memories from the show in their own kitchens.
About Food Trail: South Africa
Food Trail: South Africa airs on Food Network (DStv Channel 175) and follows Warren as he explores the country’s diverse food traditions, cultures and communities. The accompanying cookbook features recipes inspired by the people and places he encountered along the way.
