Exploring this iconic Cape coastline (the West Coast of South Africa) and the people who call it home, West Coast Wander takes readers - travellers and home cooks alike - on a culinary caper from Yzerfontein to Doringbaai, documenting each delicious detour along the way. From heerboontjies to harders, the book encapsulates recipes both well known and newly discovered. Using a, uncluttered approach to cooking, author Georgia East highlights the unique ingredients cultivated along this coastline, transforming them into dishes filled with local flavour. Seeking out the best place to buy bread in Hopefield, discovering what sets a Sandveld Sauvignon Blanc apart and learning how the plumpest oysters in the country are farmed in Saldanha Bay are just a few of the corners covered. Combining Mediterranean simplicity with a dash of nostalgia, West Coast Wander is the definitive guide to sustainable seaside fare and a valuable addition to any South African kitchen.
