The Food Network to start South Africa's first annual Food Network National Potjie Challenge in August.


The Food Network (DStv 185) will be starting its first annual Food Network National Potjie Challenge that will take place on Saturday 27 August at Sun City Cabanas with 6 teams that will be competing for a gold, silver and bronze potjie trophy.

''We are really excited about establishing an event that truly represents South African food and culture,'' says Nick Thorogood, managing director of The Food Network for the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region.

''Potjie is a much loved tradition enjoyed by the population of South Africa and Food Network hope there'll be no better way to celebrate this delicious food than by creating a National Potjie Day for everyone to participate in and really enjoy.''
