\"\"<\/p>\n

Introducing Female Forward Feasts, an at-home collaboration celebrating female chefs and winemakers, happening every Thursday during Women\u2019s month. During national lockdown these chefs met whilst donating soup or baking bread, cooking and volunteering at Ladles of Love, a soup kitchen that feeds communities in Cape Town.<\/p>\n

Coming Together<\/h4>\n

Cape Town has a vibrant and diverse culinary scene, which all these women are proudly a part of. This women\u2019s month they have collaborated to mark their diversity and offer patrons a variety of special experiences. On each Thursday during August, you can celebrate with them by enjoying the unique approach and concept of the different chefs and winemakers that all add to the culinary and vinous diversity that our city has to offer.<\/p>\n

*Unfortunately due to the new alcohol ban, the wine can only be delivered after the ban has been lifted.<\/p>\n
