“Cooking is compassion.Food shouldn’t perplex you. I never want anyone to leave

feeling confused or overwhelmed. This is the food of my youth. Not impressive just is what it is. I know nostalgia is done to death in these parts but for good reason. Food is good when you shed a tear, or at least want to. I cried a little, too. Don’t know why, but I was happy when I did cause I knew it meant I care. And I remember.” - Khanya Mzongwana
