Friends. Food. Flavour.

Michael Olivier says Friends. Food. Flavour.is the culmination of a long journey. He was invited by the Voyager Wine Estate in Western Australia to prepare a ‘Cape Buffet’ for the duration of the Margaret River November Wine Festival. He and his wife, Madeleine, researched, deconstructed, and rebuilt the recipes, leaving them with a collection of essentially Cape Dishes, which he wanted to publish. Michael and Roelien Immelman, a very talented illustrative designer agreed to go in a partnership on Friends.Food.Flavour., and including the recipes of friends, the book was born. The dishes are eclectic and accompanied by Roelien’s superb illustrations and Mike Robinson’s sensitive photography.
