We are a husband and wife team (Sharon and Russ) who are both passionate about good food and felt that we should bring some of the tastes of the varied dishes from the Rainbow nation, to people in the UK,as well as other Southern Africans who miss their favourite dishes from back home. Sharon was born and raised in Southern Africa and she is very familiar with the ranges of typical dishes from that part of the world.
