Food holds a pivotal role in every holiday or gathering, nourishing guests' souls and crafting indelible memories that hark back to their adventures. Our food philosophy is straightforward: we prioritize sourcing the freshest local produce and champion sustainable, regionally inspired, wholesome cuisine.
We develop food and beverage concepts, design menus and recipes, source the best ingredients, focus on beautiful and appropriate food styling, and manage kitchens practically.
To complete the experience, we design classic cocktail lists, wine lists, in-room bar contents, specialty tea menus, craft coffees, and of course, the perfect sundowner. Most importantly, we train chefs and butlers to deliver food cooked with love.
What We Do
Food and Beverage Concepts
Where you eat is often more important than what you eat. We design concepts that celebrate these unique environments: stylish picnics, romantic lantern-lit dinners, exciting bush barbecues, surprise in-room dining, game drive snacks, gorgeous restaurant dining, and more.
Food Styling
How food is served and presented is as important as what is being served. Drawing on years of experience, we ensure kitchen teams deliver consistently good and beautifully styled food. From early morning wake-ups to tailored "food to go," we cover every touchpoint to ensure a seamless experience.
Menu and Recipe Development
Working with regionally sourced ingredients, we design menus and develop recipes that are delicious, practical to implement, and sustainable. Collaborating closely with your chefs, we delight guests with local dishes served in traditional ways. We prepare customized recipe manuals and kitchen documentation to equip chefs long after our time on site.
Practical Kitchen Management
Recognizing the challenges of cooking in remote areas, we collaborate with teams to find solutions, supplies, and menus that work efficiently. Our menus not only offer guests an authentic taste of safari but also ensure cost-effective kitchen management through efficient ingredient use.
Beverage
Beverages reflect your guests' personalities in a cup. We design a beverage experience appropriate and sustainable for your hotel or lodge. From the perfect cup of coffee to international wine lists, we source the best options available to create a world-class offering. Our services include designing classic cocktail lists, wine lists, in-room bar contents, specialty tea menus, craft coffees, and the perfect sundowner.
