Andrew Broughton and Lecia de Villiers, owners of “The Food Studio”, have brought an exciting new twist to the world of food experiences, a welcome new dimension to dining in Port Elizabeth. They share a passion for fine food and cooking and aim to bring people together simply by having them socialise in the kitchen while preparing, cooking and enjoying fine food. Their kitchen was launched in September 2017 with their first trial experience on 15 July 2017. Since the launch The Food Studio has been abuzz with creative dining events, food demonstrations by chefs and cooks, private dining and food pairing experiences. Their ‘in house’ chefs are Vuyani Nkwali and Mike Mallet with the recent addition of Chef Erika. The Food Studio can accommodate 12 to 40 people, smaller groups around the kitchen table and larger groups can spread out into the dining area and outside deck area. It is not a restaurant run on a daily basis,\u00a0they offer\u00a0food and cooking events\u00a0custom made to your requirements,\u00a0by bookings only. Along with that they advertise regular food events. Past events have been sizzlers: Ultimate Meat Feast, Seafood Extravaganza, Degustation, All things cheezy! Culinary Kids at The Food Studio, Couples Sharing Night, An evening with Vuyani Nkwali, Taste Sensation, All Things Chocolate. We attended the ‘All Things Chocolate’ event and enjoyed every second of the evening and devoured every last crumb of the decadent meals served. It was a sheer delight to have the chefs present and cooking for us\u00a0making it\u00a0a memorable evening of fun and fine dining with special friends.
