Book excerpt: JUSTIN VISITS 13 PROFESSIONAL KITCHENS - ALL BEACONS ON THE SOUTH AFRICAN CULINARY LANDSCAPE - and gets to cook with some of the most celebrated chefs and cooks in the country. Follow the adventures of this self-confessed bush cook as he makes a giant gastronomic leap and smarts up to the value of salsa verde, a good mirepoix and the most complicated scallop dish on the planet. This time you get the nest of both worlds- everything you'd expect from a bush cook, and everything he learns along the way. From All Seafood-Carpetbaggers and Prawn Jumpers to Prickly Pear and bubbly Sorbet, this is a lip-smacking exercise in becoming a better cook.
