Indulge your inner foodie at Ginger & Lime Food Studio

There is no denying that food is one of the highlights of life. Through all its textures and sensory experiences, the art of cooking is one of the most satisfying skills to have in one's personal repertoire. 
 
Ginger & Lime Food Studio in Fresnaye offers an interactive cooking experience like no other. 
 
The heart of Ginger & Lime
 
Ginger & Lime is the place for you whether you find cooking to be a daunting task or you're already a pro at simmering and sauteing. The on-hand chefs guide you through each step to create mouthwatering meals that you can sprinkle atop your dinner parties to wow your guests. 
 
For those who prefer to observe, you can relax with a drink in hand and watch the chefs work their magic. Led by professional Head Chef Denise, she aims to expand people's views of food and cooking as a whole. Having been an international model for many years, her extensive travels saw her introduced to cuisine from all corners of the globe and she developed a deep appreciation for the cultural aspect of preparing food. 
 
"I am grateful to my team for their enthusiasm toward the new flavours I bring back from my travels to experiment with all the time. Our shared passion for great food and a true love of being in the kitchen together is what sets us apart from other cooking schools" says Denise. 
 
Supporting local 
 
The freshest ingredients are locally sourced from suppliers and sponsors around Fresnaye and surrounding areas in Cape Town. From charming, bespoke delicatessens to well-known supermarkets, Ginger & Lime promises quality produce all year round. 
 
The meals are prepared to cater to the dietary requirements of even the most discerning palates. The studio offers vegetarian, pescatarian and meat-heavy dishes. Expect to find meals that include exotic flavours like lemongrass and cardamom.
