I was so excited when I received an email for chef Kagiso's recommendation. After he serviced us, I spent almost the whole week rating and writing reviews about this amazing chef. He's is so passionate, he definitely has people skills and really knows what he is doing. For someone wanting to attend his lessons, I would say. This is your best tutor and chef.

I know Kagiso from when he cooked for our family while we were on holiday. It was a true African experience, he went out to make us feel at home. It was amazing how he added an African touch to the dishes that we have at home. I have not attended his lessons however the time I spend with him cooking in our kitchen was amazing, he was friendly, interested in knowing us and always went out of his way to make us happy. I would say that I know him personally and through his business. Gold Star rating from me and my family.

I was offered a job as a cook by Mr Kagiso when I was working as a cleaner and I did not know anything about cooking. He was very patient with me, taught me how to make sandwiches and pack them; he taught me how to grill wors and make wors rolls. I also learned how to make chicken fried chicken. I learned a lot from his business. He is a great teacher.

I met Kagiso for the first time when he was catering at a Food Market, was really impressed by his high levels of energy and friendliness, so I decide on an online session with him. I must say, I was blown away. One of the best tutors around indeed!

Kagiso's Video

Find out more about Kagiso

When and how did you first discover your craft?
I discovered my craft at the intersection of heritage and responsibility. I learned to cook through traditional South African methods, where food wasn’t optional—it was a duty, a way of bringing people together. Over time, that foundation was refined through years of professional catering, entrepreneurship, and executive-level hospitality. Cooking became not just a skill, but a discipline I apply with precision.
Which artists or artworks have inspired you the most?
I am inspired by African culinary heritage rather than a single artist. The generations who perfected slow cooking, patience, and flavour layering without formal training shaped my philosophy. Internationally, fine-dining plating and Italian simplicity have influenced how I present food with clarity and respect for ingredients.
What qualities and skills are required to succeed in this domain?
Discipline, consistency, emotional control, and respect for process. Great cooking is about preparation, timing, and calm execution under pressure. Creativity matters, but reliability matters more.
What is the most valuable advice you could give someone?
Finish what you start. Mastery comes from repetition, not excitement. Please make sure to treat every session as a professional commitment.
How would you describe your passion?
Cooking grounds me. It gives me clarity and purpose. It connects my African roots with modern excellence and allows me to serve people meaningfully.
What creative achievements are you proud of?
Building Bontlefela Entertainment, being featured in IOL (“SA Start-up shows local is lekker”), receiving Restaurant Guru recognition, completing Investec Startup School, and hearing real clients express genuine appreciation for my work.
Have you ever been surprised by a student?
Yes. Many students arrive unsure, and within a few sessions, they gain confidence not only in cooking but in decision-making. That transformation is powerful.
Being a Superprof is an art! What is your secret?
Structure and respect. I prepare thoroughly, listen carefully, and deliver consistently. Students trust me because I take their growth seriously.
