Delight Your Senses At The Delicious Food And Music Festival

By · On 5 September 2013

Date: 5 & 6 October 2013
Venue: Blue Hills Equestrian Estate, Kyalami, Johannesburg

Depending on whether your taste buds rule the roost or your ear drums call the shots, Delicious is a music festival for food lovers or a food festival for music lovers. Set on the rolling green lawns of Blue Hills Equestrian Estate in Kyalami, the festival seems to offer something for everyone and is being brought to life by big-name sponsors like DStv, Checkers, Ocean Basket, Sunday Times and The Sowetan.

For foodies, the Delicious festival offers some tasty options to choose from:

  • Craft your own picnic selection from the artisan food market and relax over a bite on the lawn.
  • Explore the Checkers Food Experience (sounds intriguing).
  • Watch the DStv Celebrity Chef cook-offs live.
  • Wrap your chopsticks around some seafood goodness at the Ocean Basket Sushi Bar.
  • Join the queue at three international pop-up restaurants featuring the talents of top UK celebrity chefs Aldo Zilli (San Carlo Cicchetti restaurant), Ed Baines (Randal and Aubin) and John Burton-Race (The John Burton-Race Experience). Enjoy fine cuisine in a setting that emulates the chefs’ iconic UK restaurants, with a prime view across the festival picnic lawn and main stage.

For music lovers, the day is jam-packed with entertainment:

The lineup is quite impressive. As the main act, Jamiroquai will keep festival goers tapping their toes, supported by some of South Africa’s best entertainment: Lira, Prime Circle, Danny K, Mi Casa, Khuli Chana, BlackByrd and Household Funk. Additional stages include an Unplugged area and Deep House Experience.

I've always loved cooking, especially with freshly picked ingredients. Between my herb and veggie patch, and sprawling collection of cookbooks and kitchen tools, I'm proud to admit that I'm a food adventurer, kitchen garden ecologist, gadget collector, and insatiable recipe enthusiast.
