The Curio Boutique at
Jamala Madikwe

Take a piece of Jamala Madikwe
home with you

The Jamala Madikwe Curio Boutique offers handcrafted and bespoke items – a small bronze, a piece of jewellery or an African artefact found nowhere else. The kind of thing that sits on a shelf at home and takes you straight back to the bush.

The Jamala Madikwe
Cookbooks

And for those who want to bring those safari flavours into their own kitchen – Nico Verster, our General Manager, Executive Chef, and part-owner of Jamala Madikwe, has two cookbooks available in our boutique curio.

After more than 15 years as a professional chef, from the Middle East to South Africa’s finest safari lodges, he has distilled that experience into two extraordinary books.

Browse them during your stay, or take one home as a truly special memento. We are obviously proud of this incredible achievement, and we hope these beautiful books will inspire our guests with gorgeous flavours from Africa.

“African food is hugely underrated, and modern South African cuisine is far removed from boring old bobotie and pale milk tart. I hope through Safaris and Spices we can share some much-needed culinary inspiration” –
