When Karen Dudley closed her iconic restaurant, The Kitchen, in Woodstock, Cape Town, there
were tears all over for the beloved establishment. Since then, Karen has found that connection
does not necessarily reside only in bricks and mortar. She has found that she can carry that
deliciousness onwards. This book is about how she has done just that.
In Onwards, Karen Dudley weaves a compelling narrative of how her life changed after the
Covid-19 pandemic forced her to close, The Kitchen. From these bleak circumstances arose
something beautiful, offering the time and space for inspiration to take root, to rediscover her
connection with food, and to shift her perception of what it means to cook, for oneself and for
others. Onwards is a book about the way forward, filled with wholesome, nourishing and
indulgent recipes, with a story of hope and happiness threaded throughout.
