Description
The people, the places and the recipes
The essence of the award-winning programme Mooiloop! (as see on SABC 2) is captured in this book, which invites you to take South Africa’s provincial/regional routes and experience small- town South Africa.
Stop and get out …admire some of the breathtaking, picturesque settings, take a walk down the streets and explore the shops and places of interest. Walk or drive to the township, feel its heartbeat. Be inspired by the artistic expressions. Learn about the history, architecture and economic activities of these “dorpies”.
Take a moment to enjoy a meal with a local flavour.
