Cooking with Fairview & Nina Timm

Fairview — Tue, 03 Jul 2018 04:00:41 +0000

It’s deepest, darkest winter time. We get it. That means it’s cold, you don’t really want to go outside right? You’d rather stay cosy, inside, curled up under a blanket with a good glass of Fairview wine. And we don’t blame you! But the truth is, we all need to eat, and arguably the best part about winter (aside from the welcome rains that flow relief through the Cape), is the food. It is that one time during the year we can really indulge in comfort foods. Think gooey, melted cheese, hearty, thick stews, voluptuous roast lamb, and fragrant noodle broths. But we’re not all Michelin-starred chefs in the kitchen either. And that’s okay! Because we have just the solution for you – and trust us, it’s worth braving the cold for this one!

This July, Fairview has teamed up with our long-time friend and favoured food blogger and chef, Nina Timm from My Easy Cooking, to bring our Fairview visitors two different cooking demos. Expect to enjoy delicious snacks and learn easy and fun recipes using Fairview’s homegrown ingredients. The concept of these events is for everyone – whether you don’t know how to boil an egg or can make a soufflé from scratch – with the main goal being to learn the value in using farm fresh, farm to fork ingredients and how to incorporate Fairview’s range of artisanal products into your everyday cooking. Check out the information below, and make sure to book your tickets!

Goatshed Dinners 2017

Fairview — Mon, 15 May 2017 13:23:24 +0000

Winter, as much as some of us would like to deny it, is here. With the sun setting earlier and our hands seeking comfort in the depth of our pockets, regular carb-filled indulgences are first on our to-do list. Enter the Goatshed Dinners. Over the past few years, the Goatshed has welcomed those in seek of solace from the cold with heated flooring, generous helpings of hearty food, consistent pourings of Fairview wine and perhaps most importantly, a refuge from the storm surrounded by good friends and a happy atmosphere. This year will be no different, with 8 dinners already lined up to get you through the chillier months. What is new is that the Goatshed team have worked to ensure the evenings are kept inspired and fresh, with a few small changes.

With some events proving to be crowd pleasers last year such as the Shiraz & Shanks and Italian evenings, this year we have decided to offer the same evening on two different dates, to ensure everyone who would like to attend will be able to make it. Both evenings will offer the same set menu.

However, if you’re feeling adventurous and up for something new, the Greek Celebration and Cape Malay Tribute are two such offerings – each evening completely different in catering and style, but equally delicious and indulgent. Then there is the Annual Charity Dinner, which this year will be in aid of The Athlone House of Strength for Abused Women and Children. Supporting us in our cause we welcome Nik Rabinowitz, one of the country’s premier comics, for the evening.

As the Goatshed team is committed to making these evenings legendary, we’ve introduced a new ticketing system on the Fairview website, so that our guests can comfortably purchase tickets from one spot. Just click here to purchase your tickets:

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, an anniversary or just getting together with family and friends, the Goatshed Dinners are really a perfect excuse to get out for the night. Come escape the cold this winter – we look forward to welcoming you through our Goatshed wooden doors!
