Quarantine Cuisine back on the menu for Stellenbosch
Some local chefs and foodies are doing their best to combat the negative effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, keep spirits up and stay afloat during this trying time.
Shortly after the national lockdown was announced, Bertus Basson recognised the need in the local community to fill bellies with a cup of hot soup. So he and wife Mareli started at home, doing what they do best to combat the negative effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, keep spirits up and stay afloat and top of mind during this trying time.
The demand for soup soon outgrew the space available to make it. They are now cooking soup from Eike in Stellenbosch and with a small team, they manage to produce about 250 portions a day.
Excitement has grown as more Stellenbosch industry friends joined, all willing to make a difference.
Bertus has asked the community to get involved if they have any resources to share, pantry items, fresh vegetables or anything else you would like to get stuck in with, please let them know. A little bit goes a long way.
