Book excerpt: What do you get when you add a little Italian, a little South African and a whole lot of love? A legacy of classic yet contemporary dishes from the Café del Sol family kitchen. Chiara and Ryan have transferred the treasured memories of both their Nonnas, as well as their Mama Luciana, to the tables of Café del Sol, and now this cookbook. Basking in a combined Italian and South African heritage, the Treccani family knows how to put heart and soul into presenting the most mouth-watering food to its guests, and now you the reader, from colazione (breakfast) and antipasto (appetisers), through primo (pasta and risotto) and secondo (second main courses), to desserts and cocktails. If you’re not hungry simply by paging through this book, you can’t be alive. So why not join the fun of this taste extravaganza and delight your family and guests by recreating these dishes. Who knows, you may start your own legacy of love. Buon apetito!
