Every year, The Taste of Joburg is the most anticipated Restaurant Festival in Gauteng… An unmissable foodie day out!
This year’s featured restaurant list is a selection of new additions and old friends ranging from Italian cuisine to Thai, French and Indian. “Selecting restaurants is always challenging because we want the show to grow every year,” says Festival Director, Justine Drake. “The expectations of the evolving Joburg palate are now such that we can afford to be a little more daring with our restaurant choices and I think our restaurants talk to that.”
The full list of restaurants that will be there can be found on Taste of Joburg’s website: http://www.tasteofjoburg.com/restaurant-list/
In addition, there will be a wide range of boutique exhibitors, artisan producers, premium drink brands and award-winning wineries that will provide a bounty of the country’s finest food and drink on offer, ensuring sampling and shopping for a range of produce in the laid back atmosphere of a boutique food market.
And for those who want to try their hand at creating their own masterpieces, the ever-popular “Robertson’s Ultimate Burger Class, “The 2 Ocean’s Butcher Block” and the “Mixology Theatre” will also be on offer.
P.S. The festival works in “sessions” as follows (i.e. make sure you get there at the beginning of a session, or you’ll need to leave before you’ve had a chance to get through everything) :
Thu 24th Sept: 13:00 – 17:00
Fri 25th Sept: 18:30 – 22:30
Sat 26th Sept: 13:00 – 17:00; 18:30 – 22:30
Sun 27th Sept: 12:00 – 17:00

Escondido – Executive Chef Martine Christian
I read the articles on several of the Restaurants, but the story behind Chef Martine (coming from Cape Town)became the Executive Chef inspired me to try her cooking. The menu changing every week is exciting for the public, the friendliness, love the idea of Tapas kind of dining which I never tried before. Looking forward to Escondido – “Hidden Treasure”.
