Hello fellow foodies!!

With the weather definitely getting colder, I seem to have been spending lots of time experimenting with different soups- and what is a bowl of soup without a glass of wine! If you are free this weekend I suggest you head down to Durbanville for the Soup, Sip and Bread festival. Here is the low down...

'Food and wine enthusiasts can nose, sip and taste their way through the heart-warming offerings of wine farms on this verdant wine route, a mere 20 minutes from the city centre. Discover the luscious, fruity merlots from the Durbanville Wine Valley and why it’s one of the most food-loving, fun-loving, soup-loving red wines around.

This friends-and-family-friendly winter feast takes a laid-back approach to the art of food and wine pairing, as vintners join hands with chefs to find soulful partners for the variety of soups, chowders and gumbos from around the world. “Although the cooler weather calls for red wine with blazing fires, don’t be surprised if sauvignon blanc, the valley’s signature white, makes a guest appearance with a creamy mussel bisque”, says Michelle van Staden of the Durbanville Wine Valley Association.”
The event is hosted on all twelve participating farms.'
