Win a Culinary Experience for Four at The Chef’s Studio on Bree Street Worth R2 600
One lucky reader stands the chance of winning a front-row seat to an interactive cooking demo by top local chefs at this slick innnercity studio.
By Kent Cloete • 19 August 2019
Brought to you by Matt Manning, chef-patron of the wildly popular Grub & Vine bistro on Bree Street, the cool and contemporary Chef’s Studio is neatly housed on the second floor of the same building as his restaurant.
The Chef’s Studio with Matt Manning
Thirty-one-year-old Matt, who cut his teeth in Michelin-starred restaurants under the likes of Marcus Wareing and superstar celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, conceived of the studio as a space to host his interactive cooking classes.
The Chef’s Studio Interior
It features custom-built workstations equipped with the latest cooking technology, and a long communal table that lends itself to the social element of gourmet dining. This is, after all, as much about the interaction between guests and chefs as it is about the food.
And now, you and three friends stand the chance of experiencing the culinary magic of this super-slick studio up close and personal by simply entering our competition.
The Chef’s Studio Cooking Class
Guided by either Matt or a consummate guest chef, you will assist in the preparation of a multi-course gourmet meal for the One Ingredient event in October (date to be confirmed), during which you’ll gain fresh, new insights into the art of cooking, and pick up some nifty tricks of the trade while you’re at it.
And, once preparation is complete, you get to sit down and enjoy the fruits of your labour.
Get those chefs hats ready!
Ts & Cs
The winner’s name will be drawn on 3 September 2019, and the prize is redeemable for October’s One Ingredient event (date to be announced). The total prize is valued at R2 600, and includes a culinary experience for four at The Chef’s Studio.
