KZN Food Photography – Chef Constantijn Hahndiek
My passion for food and photography continues unabated…….so I was of course rather thrilled when the GM from Hartford House – Duncan Bruce – called me to set up our next shoot. They had a VIP guest, restaurant crit and blogger, Chris Von Ulmenstein and Chef Tijn was preparing some special dishes. I have to admit, I got to taste each and although they were all beautifully presented, smelled sensational and tasted divine – the Quail did it for me.
