About Africola and Ochota Barrels
Situated in the heart of Adelaide is South African restaurant, Africola – the best way to describe them is with a really good swear word, followed by a superlative. The cartoon-esque interior and earthy, unapologetic food of Africola has turned heads within the industry, resulting in them being awarded a hat in the Good Food Guide. Duncan Welgemoed is the South Africa-born co-owner and Chef – having worked for well-known Chefs in the UK like Gordon Ramsay, Heston Blumenthal and Michael North, he is currently one of Australia’s most-watched and sought-after culinary talents. Duncan’s good friend Taras Ochota is the co-owner and Winemaker of Ochota Barrels vineyard, nestled up in the Adelaide Hills. Ochota’s naturally-made wines are available on the beverage menu at Africola. 

When asking Sean Connolly why he’d chosen to collaborate with Africola and Ochota Barrels, he replied “I spend a lot of time in Adelaide and without doubt, they are some of the best in town! Africola reminds me of The Grill – great, simple product that’s executed well. It’s funky and innovative. I can’t wait to get in the kitchen with Duncan – it’ll be f#%in magic. We’re also bringing over my mate Taras and his Ochota Barrels wine – it’s dynamic, natural, no-bullshit involved, they’re leading the wine scene in South Australia and will be the perfect match to our one-of-a-kind menu.”
