mmmmzansi!
At Foodies of SA, we wash the dishes but never fold the vadoek…that's right, the kitchen is never closed.
We sweat over creating recipes that use local ingredients, kitchen gadgets that you don’t need a PhD to operate, and ingredients you can actually pronounce, like Worcestershire Sauce.
Foodies of Mzansi, we’ve opened our kitchen to you, the everyday home cook that have your guests cleaning the bone (and plate) so good, it would make your parents proud.
