In episode 4, we saw Tigere aka Tigs a contestant from Joburg North, entice his guest by cooking a West African dish called Jollof rice (a well-known cuisine stirring up conversation in many parts of Africa as to which country cooks it better) and in last week’s episode 8 , we saw Tshepo, an event planner from Joburg South cook Bohobe, with a twist – another home –grown African meal, who would have thought?
