Situated at the bottom of a continent teeming with culinary diversity, South Africa is home to a host of different cultures. Now leading South African foodie and author Phillippa Cheifitz provides a delicious sampler of the rich variety of South African culinary tradition in South Africa Eats. Phillippa has asked 13 of SA's leading foodies, from Dorah Sitole to Mariana Esterhuizen, about their family history, roots and influences - and, most importantly, for a few of their favourite recipes. Inspired by these food traditions and contemporary South African culinary trends - 'We like it easy to make and delicious to eat,' says Phillippa - she has also included some of her favourite 'modern South African' recipes (South Africa Eats includes approximately 80 recipes in total).
