Our very own Neil Jewell is the August 2011 Col'Cacchio's Celebrity Chef. His gourmet pizza, available at Col'Cacchio's countrywide, is DELICIOUS. Think red lentil dal, plum tomato marmalade, vinegar preserved pork, chilli liquorice, fresh yogurt and coriander. Yum!
The best part of this pizza is that you don't have to feel guilty when you order it because R5, of each pizza sold, is donate to the Wildlands Sustainable Communities Programme. So next time you're looking for something scrumptious to dive into try one of Neil's Col'Cacchio's pizzas … we promise you won't be disappointed.
This super festival, which is a must for those looking to banish the winter woes, takes place on Saturday the 16th and Sunday the 17th of July. If you've never attended check out our pictures from last year's Bastille. It was a hoot-and-a-half.
We will all be attending and our family will have the following on offer:
Môreson
The full range of Miss Molly wines including the perennially popular Miss Molly Bubbly, a rather macabre guillotine and our wine maker sporting a very distinguished tache. niaace.
Bread & Wine Vineyard Restaurant
Neil's scrumptious boerewors rolls, Toulouse rolls; game, butternut and walnut sausages, filled focaccia, and - of course - a healthy supply of Tina's totally-addictive fudge. There will also be a variety of Neil's famous charcuterie - Coppa, Saussison Sec, Spanish Cured Loin, Biltong and Tasson - for sale in the town hall. salivate.salivate. salivate.
Le Quartier Français
The beautiful and decidedly tasty Mademoiselle Lamb Burger – Lamb Burger’s lesser known but equally delicious niece - will be making an appearance this weekend at the 2011 Bastille Festival. She'll be accompanied by a selection of her favourite treats including: bitterballen and brownies. wawaweewa.
P.S. Tickets are almost sold out. To book your Bastille Festival 2011 ticket/s online please click here.
A farm is absolutely beautiful at the moment.
We've got a lot on the go from the refurbishing of Bread & Wine Vineyard Restaurant to the pruning of our vineyards, harvesting of our lemons, waiting patiently for our avocados to ripen and - of course - our ongoing preparations for the upcoming Bastille Festival (including a very fetching guillotine which was delivered on Friday). It's all very exciting. Seriously, it's awesome!

If you're in the area you should pop in for a visit and experience all the magic. You know you want to. Come on, step away from the PC and closer to the Hoek.
Our favourite chef - Neil Jewell - recently appeared in Men's Health where he tackled the Holiest of Holy Guy Meals, the burger.
I've scanned in a copy of the article but I think that you should still pick up a copy of the magazine because, let's face it, my scanning abilities leave a lot to be desired. I think that I've finally come to terms with the fact that I will never been a Professional Scanner. It's a lot to deal with but I am sure you will all be relieved to hear that I'm handling the disappointment surprisingly well. Shoo. I can here that collective sigh of relief.
