Die Kampvuurstorie
Daar word vertel dat in vergange se dae die Transportryer na ‘n dag in die son, wind en weer sy perd sou afsaal, sy wa skoonmaak, en homself in die veld sou tuismaak langs ‘n gesellige kampvuurtjie met sy ketel en sy koffiebeker, want as die son gesak het was dit uitspantyd. ‘n Tyd om sommer net te sit en ontspan en iets te drink en te eet voordat daar kooi toe gegaan word.
U is nou by so ‘n uitspanplek. Kom en geniet ons “Kampvuur”, ontspan saam met ons, eet en drink iets, en kuier lekker saam met u vriende en familie voordat ook u kooi toe gaan vir ‘n welverdiende nagrus na ‘n lang en stresvolle dag as ‘n moderne Transportryer van die nuwe millennium.
Kampvuur Restaurant is die breinkind en handewerk van die eienaar Dana Blom en het oor ‘n tydperk van vier jaar ontwikkel van ‘n droom en ‘n visie tot die werklikheid waarin u uself op hierdie tydstip bevind. Daar het baie honderde man-ure se navorsing, dinkwerk, eksperimente en frustrasie, maar veral ontsettende harde handearbeid plaasgevind om hierdie absoluut unieke Restaurant tot stand te bring.
Dana en sy vrou Ria is mense wat glo dat die tradisies van ons voorouers nie verlore mag gaan nie en daarom sal die Kampvuur Restaurant se atmosfeer en ‘n sentrale deel van die spyskaart altyd bestaan uit eg tradisionele konsepte, geregte en resepte soos ons voorouers dit gedoen het. Ons wil u dus uitnooi om enige eg tradisionele geregte waarvan die resepte nie familiegeheime is nie met ons te deel soda tons dit in ons spyskaart kan verewig. U kan maar die familiegeheimresep ook aan ons toevertrou. Ons belowe ons sal vir niemand vertel nie.
Hiermee dan ‘n laaste word van verwelkoming hier by Kampvuur. Ons glo en vertrou u sal dit so geniet dat hierdie uitspanplek ook een van u gunsteling uitspanplekke sal word.

The Kampvuur Story
It is being said that in the early days the transport-rider would, after a long hard day in the sun, wind and weather, settle down next to a nice, cozy campfire with his kettle and coffee mug, because when the sun has set it was time to relax with a few cups of coffee and something to eat before settling in for the night’s rest.
You are at such a spot right now. Come and join us at our “Campfire”, have something to drink and eat and enjoy the company of your family and friends before you go home to settle in for a good night’s rest after a stressful day as a modern day transport-rider in the new millennium.
Kampvuur Restaurant is the brainchild and handcraft of its owner, Dana Blom. It developed over a period of four years from a dream and a vision into the reality inside which you find yourself right now. The whole process included hundreds of man-hours of reseach, thinking, experimenting and frustration, but by far extremely hard physical manual labour to have as a result this absolutely unigue Restaurant.
Dana and his wife Ria are people who believe that the traditions of our forefathers should be preserved, and therefore the Kampvuur Restaurant’s atmosphere and an integral part of its menu will always consist of true traditional concepts, dishes and recipes the way our forefathers used to prepare them. We would therefore like to invite you to share any traditional recipe which is not a family secret with us to enable us to eternalize it in our menu. You can even entrust your family secret recipes to us. We promise not to tell anybody.
Herewith then a last word of welcome at Kampvuur. We trust and hope that it would be such an enjoyable experience that our favorite “campfire” would also become one of yours.
