Zak and Tonic in the Rooftop Garden

This week I visited the Zak and Tonic Pop up Shop in the Priority Zone Rooftop Garden. 

The Garden was developed on the roof of the Priority Zone Project’s offices with the aim of providing food to needy people and educating the public about food security and sustainability.
Local office workers often lunch in this oasis in the city, but this week, Zak and Tonic are providing delicious food and drinks, and many of the delegates to the UIA2013 conference are benefitting from their talent.
 
It's inspiring to see all sorts of vegetables growing in 44 gallon drums and various other recycled products.
Zak (Izak) and Tonic (Tam) are foodie friends who met on the set of Master Chef South Africa in 2012  The two self-taught food enthusiasts
Tomorrow, the 7th August is the last day of the Zak and Tonic pop up shop.  If you are not able to get there to enjoy their food this week, the beautiful gardens at 77 Monty Naicker Street  are worth a visit anytime.
