Uncorked Journeys

Uncorked Journeys is what happens when a Michelin-trained chef, globe-trotting sommelier, and unapologetic kitchen troublemaker decides to share his favourite recipes and the stories behind them. Marc Rewinkel has cooked in star-studded kitchens, poured wine for royalty aboard the legendary Queen Mary 2, and eaten just as happily from a plastic bowl at a street stall as in a fine-dining restaurant.This is not your average cookbook. You'll travel from the bouillabaisse shores of Provence (after a slightly questionable fishing session) to the smoky braais of South Africa, the noodle carts of Thailand, and the vineyards of Europe. Every recipe comes with a wine pairing that's smart, cheeky, or both - because food without wine is just "emotional snacking."Part travel diary, part dinner party, part culinary mischief, Uncorked Journeys invites you to pour a glass, roll up your sleeves, and join the tasteful chaos. After all, those who don't jump will never fly - and always make time to do the funky chicken!

Marc Rewinkel honed his craft in Michelin-starred kitchens around the world before taking to the seas as a sommelier aboard the legendary Queen Mary 2. His travels have whisked him through bustling markets, grand hotel kitchens, and hidden local gems on nearly every continent, collecting both flavors and stories. Today, he blends the precision of haute cuisine with a playful flair for edible theatre - sugar that inflates into bubbles, sauces that swirl like dancers, and plates that tell a story before you even take a bite. For Marc, cooking isn't just a craft; it's an adventure you can taste, served with a wink and a side of wonder.
