Rosebank Flea Market
Personally, I don’t get excited about flea markets and normally manage to avoid them. However, they do have a habit of finding me!

10 Second Avenue, Houghton
It never ceases to surprise me how one can live in an area and not be aware of so much that goes on. This happened again when I was invited to visit 10-2nd Avenue in Houghton. I knew very well where Houghton was and 2nd Avenue was presumably next to 1st Avenue, which I also knew. So I set off curiou... Read More

Bean, Chippolata and Butternut Soup
Us LekkerBekke are really foodies and not soccer honcho's - but the chances are that Uruguay, Mexico, Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil and even Chile will be battling it out for football supremacy… And to us that’s a really good excuse for a 'Latino Americano' snack platter!

Caipirinhas are a... Read More
Nature’s Prescriptions
Even as far back as 400BC, Hippocrates said, “Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food”. An ancient European document, called the Document of Signatures, also held some astounding insights into the way we interact with food and nature. The doctrine suggested that the shape and col...
