Synopsis

Leipoldts cellar and kitchen is a delectable, amusing, insightful record of cultural and social history at the Cape, delightfully observed and nostalgically expressed by the pre-eminent connoisseur of Cape cookery. Leipoldt writes about food and wine expressively as a poet, authoritatively as a medical doctor and botanist, and with the humility of the expert enthusiast. The ingredients of this title spring both literally and metaphorically from the soil of South Africa, articulating and preserving wonderful facets of Afrikaans culture and heritage. This is not only a title for the cook and the connoisseur, but for everyone able to appreciate exquisite prose, for everyone interested in encountering one of our great poets writing about something that fascinated him throughout his life - the preparation of good food and the enjoyment and value of wine.
