After 14 years, it's time for us to turn the page. 🍽️

Back in 2012, Lemongrass Productions jumped on board as Event Manager for Heart of the City's , and what a ride it's been. We brought on sponsors, flew in more than 20 internationally acclaimed chefs from London, South Africa, Singapore and beyond, and helped create some truly unforgettable experiences – Street Eats, Food to Die For, Dinner in the Dark, Masu Unleashed, Nothing for Dinner and so many more.

We've had the privilege of working alongside just about every passionate chef and restaurant team in the CBD, and we are so proud of what we built together.

It's time for us to hang up our apron on Restaurant Month and put our energy into new endeavours.

A huge thank you to every chef, sponsor, collaborator and food lover who has been part of this journey with us – it has genuinely been an honour.

But don't worry – we are FAR from done with this city's food scene. In fact, we think we're just getting started. Something new is already taking shape… watch this space, and get in touch if you'd like to be part of it! 🌶️
