Zak has become an absolute expert at braaing garlic bread, which is actually quite an art! Normally I cheat and stick it in the oven, but Zak has found a way to braai it perfectly, every time!

It's an all in family experience and we are all always rewarded with delicious food. Also, we almost always braai too much, another South African tradition - and although we didn't have My potato salad, we sure had a feast and I got to enjoy my leftovers the next day!
