Staying in is the new going out
Getting creative online (and in the kitchen), comic genius, Chris Forrest, and celebrity chef, Pete Goffe-Wood, are re-creating a night out by scrumptiously blending comedy and cooking together into the Top
Gear of cooking shows with their lockdown version of Don’t
Burn Your Sausage on July 18. The show will be a live online broadcast with Goffe-Wood cooking from Tintswalo Atlantic in Cape Town and Forrest from his home in Randburg.
Using suggestive humour the pair are set to demonstrate how food and sex are intertwined as they prepare a three-course meal.
Following sold-out shows in Grahamstown, Cape Town, Johannesburg and Windhoek, the duo has delivered this live food show to rave reviews from critics, including at the 2016 National Arts Festival, and adjusting to the times, this will be their first online show.
“A wonderful new and naughty twist on the good old cooking demo,” is how Cue Media put it in their review of the show. Adding that “It combines expert cooking with comical sexual euphemisms.”
Forrest has been on the SA comedy scene since the late nineties and Goffe-Wood (best known as the Masterchef South
Africa judge known to crack a joke or two), has been making food for nearly 30 years.
When the two of them met on the set of Celebrity Masterchef
SA in 2015, they found that they had a couple of things in common – one of them being the same dry sense of humour and the other, a liking for mouthwatering, delicious food.
After the series ended, they decided to combine their respective talents to put together this culinary comedy show. Tickets for Don’t Burn Your
Sausage on July 18 are available at R80 via https://mzanzilive.tv/.
The show starts at 8pm. —
