Chef Mynhardt Joubert to host Christmas lunch

< 1 min

Giving guests the personal touch, Chef Mynhardt Joubert will be hosting a fynbos-inspired Christmas lunch at his home-based, long-table restaurant in Paarl. Each of the four courses will be paired with wines and aged brandies from KWV’s Empyreach Collective range, and the lunch is priced at R650 a head. Says Chef Mynhardt: “Christmas is a very special time for me, I love the energy and the congeniality of the festive season, and this year’s Festive Table will definitely reflect the giving, happy and generous spirit of the season.”

Chef Mynhardt, who is an ambassador of KWV wines and who has just been appointed ambassador for Karusaf free-range lamb, drew inspiration from these brands to create the below menu:
