Lesley Byram Reviews La Petite Ferme Cookbook: Franschhoek

November 17th, 2009 by Jani

La Petite Ferme Cookbook: FranschhoekVerdict: glazed carrot

La Petite Ferme, tucked into the slopes of the Middagkrans Mountain overlooking the Franschhoek valley hooks many regulars en route to what is considered the gastronomic capital of South Africa and everyone seems to know that booking well in advance is essential.

With an awesome view of the valley below and surrounded by vineyards now producing their own top quality wines, the property has been in the Dendy Young family since the early ’70s and run by Mark Dendy Young and his wife Josephine since 1994. This book follows Dendy Young’s mother Carol’s cookbook Country Cuisine published in 2002, and contains some of those popular recipes together with some more recent creations.
