Anton has a wealth of magical cooking experience and skillful living to share with us.
We will gather to explore summer-inspired recipes with the abundance of fruit and vegetables at their peak flavour and nutritional value. Summer is energetic, colourful and filled with abundance. A summer cooking retreat at Emoyeni offers not only culinary education but also an opportunity to practice meditation, unwind, connect with nature and appreciate the flavours of the season.
Anton has been a volunteer cook at Emoyeni for many years where he has shared his skills, creativity and a lifelong passion for food. He has also cooked for exclusive bush lodge retreats elevating local cuisine and dishes for international travellers. For him, cooking has always been about discovery and experimentation but mostly about fostering connection, inviting joy and creating a meaningful community of practice. His love for making things extends beyond cooking to building (a straw-bale house in the eastern Free State) as well as writing (concept development and authoring his father’s biography) and a career in television as a producer, including the award-winning culinary series My Kitchen Rules.
Join us for what promises to be a truly wonderful , interactive retreat.
