Vastly experienced chef Mokgadi Itsweng was in town on Saturday to tickle the taste buds of locals with her delicious recipes at the Market@TheSheds street food festival.

“Chef Mokgadi”, as she is affectionately known, showcased how to #CreateAStir with her versatility in the food stakes.
She said people at the festival fell in love with her recipe. “Besides the fact that it is free, the food is really good. We are in a market situation and there is so much going on in terms of food,” she said.
The idea behind the festival was to create things that people would appreciate, she said.

The response has been good,” Chef Mokgadi said.
