Uncorked Journeys

Uncorked Journeys is what happens when a Michelin-trained chef, globe-trotting sommelier, and unapologetic kitchen troublemaker decides to share his favourite recipes and the stories behind them. Marc Rewinkel has cooked in star-studded kitchens, poured wine for royalty aboard the legendary Queen Mary 2, and eaten just as happily from a plastic bowl at a street stall as in a fine-dining restaurant. This is not your average cookbook. You’ll travel from the bouillabaisse shores of Provence (after a slightly questionable fishing session) to the smoky braais of South Africa, the noodle carts of Thailand, and the vineyards of Europe. Every recipe comes with a wine pairing that’s smart, cheeky, or both — because food without wine is just “emotional snacking.” Part travel diary, part dinner party, part culinary mischief, Uncorked Journeys invites you to pour a glass, roll up your sleeves, and join the tasteful chaos. After all, those who don’t jump will never fly — and always make time to do the funky chicken!
