A new month, a new dinner and cooking class from Chef Matt Manning.
I’m gonna rewind a little in case you don’t know what One Ingredient is. This unique dining experience showcases the versatility of one carefully chosen ingredient over all four courses of the evening. After Matt gives a demonstration of each course, guests re-create two of the courses and present them as a professional, before taking their dish into the relaxed dining room to devour with a wine pairing from an exclusive wine farm.
Matt can also hook you up with a private dining experience to at your home, or the unique One Ingredient concept for corporate events and private functions, as well as hosting cooking demonstrations.
“My goal is to keep producing top quality food which I can serve to guests who enjoy it, and then pair that food with the best wine available to showcase just how gastronomical food is. My next goal is to introduce One Ingredient to the Johannesburg and Durban market”
