From meat, to milk, to bread, supermarkets stock it all and eliminate the need to go to local artisans. There is little charm in supermarket shopping, in fact there is little choice too, as contradictory as that sounds. Walking into a supermarket doesn\u2019t provide you with choice, or nuance, it just provides you with the same product you bought last week. Inspiring? We think not.<\/p>\n<p>I dream of a world where my local butcher phones me up excited about a particular cut of meat they have in stock, or when my cheese monger, knowing my love of blue cheese, keeps a special piece aside for my next visit. Cape Town has a few incredible local artisans who rely on our support to keep them open and trading. Next time you\u2019re looking for a more personal experience, with regards to your meat, cheese or bread, try these gems out.<\/p>\n<h4>Gardens Continental Butchery<\/h4>\n<div class=\"rir-row\"><div class=\"rir-cols-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ContinentalButchery_4x6.jpg\" alt=\"german butcher kloof\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" \/><\/div><div class=\"rir-cols-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ContinentalButchery_4x61.jpg\" alt=\"german butcher kloof\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" \/><\/div><\/div>\n<p>A quintessential butchery that&#8217;s been around since 1986, the <strong>German Continental Butchery<\/strong> is a marvel of artisanship. Uwe Hansen is a wonderfully friendly and helpful butcher, clearly passionate about meat, which makes the experience of supporting him so much more gratifying. All the biltong, dro\u00ebwors, beef, chicken and poultry are prepared in-house and if you&#8217;re looking for something specific, or for a cut of meat to be prepared in a certain way, he is all too happy to help and offer advice.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t know much about meat, going to a butcher and asking advice will only make your cooking and eating experience more enjoyable. You just don&#8217;t get this type of quality, service or variety from a supermarket.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Top tip:<\/strong> Go for the meat, but stay for the biltong.
