A Delicious Introduction to Overberg Mushrooms
July 25, 2026 11:18 amWe had the pleasure of interviewing Heinrich van Niekerk, owner of Overberg Mushrooms, on the Restaurants SA Talk Show LIVE on Caledon FM yesterday.
He kindly gifted us some of his premium Great White Oyster Mushrooms to try, and I decided to enjoy them for brunch. Simply sautéed in exceptional olive oil from Dal Italia, they were absolutely delicious—fresh, flavourful and unlike any mushrooms I have tasted before.
I was so impressed that I have already placed an order for his Lion's Mane and Pink Oyster mushrooms, and I can't wait to try them.
Heinrich is a wealth of knowledge, and his passion for mushroom cultivation is truly inspiring. He is also a qualified beekeeper in the Overberg, reflecting his commitment to sustainable food production.
If the quality of these mushrooms is anything to go by, Overberg Mushrooms is certainly a business to watch. It is businesses like this that embody the values of Africa's First UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy—celebrating local food production, sustainability, innovation and exceptional regional produce.Rate Us- Was this review helpful?
