If youre in the Winelands this upcoming long weekend, head to the historic Bien Donné farm near Paarl for a celebration of all things cheesy, with the annual South African Cheese Festival taking place from 25 – 28 April 2008.

Discover daring new varieties from French, Dutch and Swiss cheesemakers or opt for your all-time favourite local cheeses – and prepare to feast on accompaniments of wine, olives and freshly baked bread.

For the knowledge hungry, some of South Africas most celebrated food personalities and cheesemakers will give informative demonstrations on cheese making.

Tickets are available through computicket at R75 per person.
