Virtual Kitchen Capers bring cooks together
Hirsch's will hold these virtual cooking events every two weeks. Due to popular demand, the Eat Greek team will be back (virtually) to show how to make moussaka.
A POPULAR event on the Hirsch’s calendar has, since its inception a year ago, been their Kitchen Capers event.
Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, the event was held on a monthly basis in Hirsch’s stores in KZN, Gauteng and the Cape.
With lockdown measures in place at this time, the Hirsch’s PR team are joining forces with some of the well known restaurants and catering businesses around the country, many of whom have battled during lockdown, and holding fun and informative Zoom sessions with the chefs in these industries.
The first Hirsch’s Kitchen Capers Zoom event was held with Eat Greek, the well-known catering business based in Durban, with owner, Nick Papadopolous and chef Eric Edwards whipping up a deliciously crisp and flavoursome Spanakopita (spinach pie) and the quintessential Greek salad in the state-of-the-art Siemens kitchen at the Hirsch’s Umhlanga branch.
They were helped, from a distance, by Hirsch’s PRO and cooking enthusiast, Lindsay Kleynhans.

Zoom guests may not have been able to taste the dish, but were left in no doubt of its unique crispness when it was sliced through.
