Chef Christiaan Campbell has left the Werf Restaurant at Boschendal after 7 years, and opened his restaurant Tebaldi’s at the spiritual retreat Temenos in McGregor a week ago.Chef Christiaan was the first South African chef to focus on ethical sourcing of ingredients for his kitchen, focusing on organic ingredients. He refuses to serve foie gras as he focuses on the humane treatment of animals.He had a vegetable and herb garden established, from which he sourced the freshest ingredients for his kitchen. He sourced beef, chicken and eggs from Farmer Angus at Spier, the home of animals reared ethically and humanely, and previously sourced vegetables and herbs from La Motte.
Christiaan worked at Delaire Graff until late 2014, before moving to Boschendal, where his Werf Restaurant opened, and a huge vegetable and herb garden was planted for him. Five months after opening, the restaurant service was still shaky.he was awarded the ‘Eat Out Woolworths Sustainability Award in 2018:
