My dad always says, 'A meal without wine is like a day without sunshine.' I think the same can be said about eating on your own. Let's face it. No one should eat alone. My worst nightmare is rushing home, fixing up a quick grub and standing in my kitchen stok siel alleen and wolfing it down. My suggestion? Get together with your mates, light a fire, have a laugh and cook food that creates memories. In fact, when I think back, most of my most memorable nights, days, braais and kuiers revolved around good food and great company. Why change a winning recipe? Whether your kitchen is in the great outdoors, somewhere on a beach or at home, this is the kind of book that is best enjoyed with your friends. And remember, there are no bad cooks . . . just friends who aren't hungry enough!
