    Justin Bonello remains convinced that there is no better way to shrug off the pressures of modern living than to bundle up the family and grab a bunch of mates and get out of town for a couple of days. He’s full of ideas on how you can immerse yourself in natural surroundings and, while you’re out there, cook up a storm and have a blast!

    It’s all about eating, drinking and lekker kuier and then packing up and doing it all over again somewhere else. Life’s a jol, why not make the most of it!

    This compilation, especially geared to getaways, includes a selection of recipes, stories and photographs culled from Cooked in Africa to which he’s added more than a handful of fresh gems. Justin will keep you cooking and coming back for more, whether you’re on the rocks, on the river or anywhere between êrens and nêrens.

    As usual our favourite amateur chef and life enthusiast offers you plenty of homespun wisdom, edgy views and fresh angles for when you venture into the wild. He makes sure that you have it all - the time-out, the adventure, the interaction and, of course, good ‘bos kos’.

Hi Justin what a great TV show.. love all the sa comments when you chat to all the different people on your road shows... make me feel so proud to be a SOUTH AFRICAN & what we have to show that we have so much to offer to eat (natural) in our beautiful country. all the farms & sea foods which bring back my childhood memories when we would collect anything from the rocks & fish to see who could cook the supper... and also on our family farms collecting all the fruit for fruit salad on a sunday after church... Keep up the good work & show..Daughter's have been given you books for their cookery collections which they love... Avril van den bosch

Hi there, You know I never get to go away for any length of time anymore but when I watch 'Cooked' on DSTV, Justin manages to make me feel like I was part of the trip, having loads of fun with friends and just being happy... I can't wait for 'Cooked-Weekends Away' as I'm sure I will feel that I have been part of the adventures and will once again feel like I have had a weekend away. Cooked rules!
