In the lively metropolis of South Africa, an extraordinary culinary extravaganza is taking place within the captivating confines of Cape Town. Hudson’s, a favorite local dining place, has embarked on a daring charity drive, assembling the very best of South Africa’s gastronomic talents to concoct irresistible, custom-made burgers. Kicked off on September 4, the initiative promises to shine as a lighthouse of culinary temptation and goodwill.
Hudson’s, renowned for their unforgettable dining moments, has transformed the simple burger into a masterpiece. Their latest initiative is no different. However, the distinguishing factor of this venture is the charitable heart at its center. A portion of the profits from each burger sold is contributed to various charities, carefully selected by the chefs themselves. The launch of the initiative showcased the kitchen under the expert supervision of Chef Liam Tomlin from Chef’s Warehouse, celebrated for his culinary skill and inventive approach.
Tomlin’s alliance with Hudson’s was highlighted by an exclusive ‘kitchen takeover’ event. Attendees had the rare privilege of witnessing a top chef displaying his talent, while feasting on his signature dish—a Mexican-themed smashburger. Amidst the cozy ambiance of the restaurant’s fireplace, the air buzzed with excitement as diners eagerly awaited their feast.
The introduction of the smashburger was greeted with enthusiastic applause. A visual delight, it was delivered with startling speed, underscoring Hudson’s flawless service. The smashburger was not only a sight to behold, but its taste was a bona fide culinary victory. The medley of flavors in each morsel affirmed Tomlin’s expertise, reinforcing his standing as a culinary maestro. A side of fries, adorned with a tempting smoked guacamole sauce and sweet potato mole, was the ideal accompaniment. The ‘Vaccine’ cocktail, a rejuvenating mix of Absolut Vodka with blueberry purée and a fizzy touch, was the crowning glory of the culinary adventure.
Amid the contented murmur of conversations, Chef Tomlin shared the inspiration behind his masterpiece. In his words, the objective was straightforward: to construct a burger that would tantalize a wide range of palates. The selection of Mexican flavors, widely embraced by many, appeared to be an ideal match. However, at the heart of this decision was the chef’s aspiration to support Reach for a Dream, a charity close to his heart. Reach for a Dream has been committed to fulfilling the final wishes of terminally ill children since its inception in 2016. Tomlin’s smashburger, with its affordable price tag, offers a tasty route to contribute to this admirable mission.
The night was undeniably a victory, not just for its gastronomic wonders but also for its charitable influence. A significant 30% of the earnings from each meal are directed towards Reach for a Dream. The charity recently marked a milestone, amassing the highest funds ever within a single year.
As we await the arrival of the next top chef to reign over Hudson’s kitchen in October, the lingering taste of Tomlin’s tantalizing smashburger serves as a delightful reminiscence, a memento of a night that elegantly fused culinary indulgence with charitable giving. The allure of the initiative is undeniable, presenting a variety of signature burgers, each distinct and crafted with the enthusiasm of South Africa’s most esteemed chefs, each contributing to a cause that resonates deeply. Hudson’s charity initiative transcends being a mere culinary event—it embodies a celebration of the transformative power of food, effecting palpable change one delicious bite at a time.
