The Good (Food & Wine) Life

The Good Food and Wine show makes its Joburg debut this weekend. With international chefs like Masterchef's George Calombaris, cooking demos and wine tastings galore, it looks to be a cracking event. Jessica Tennant interviews George Calombaris to find out more.

In other top story news, Pasqua Heard interviews Elvis Blue about new album, Brian Berkman explores the recently upgraded Oude Werf Hotel in Stellenbosch and Ultra South Africa announces the dates and ticket prices for the 2017 festival.

Our new competition sees you stand the chance to win two tickets to GrietFest in Joburg!
