When Mduduzi realised that what he thought was food for special occasions could be your everyday meal, there was no turning back.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A heightened interest in food for Mduduzi Ngwenya began when he was still at school and his sisters would return for the holidays from their tertiary education institutions and cook meals outside of the traditional basic, staple ones their mother had always made for them.<\/p>\n

\u2018Suddenly I was no longer eating sorghum with beans, samp and stews or maize meal. Instead, I found myself devouring and relishing pasta with different types of sauces, cottage pies and even souffl\u00e9s. Meals that I had always thought were meant only for special occasions were now being dished up almost every day by my sisters,\u2019 explains Ngwenya.<\/p>\n

\u2018I also realised then that if meals are that good and tasty, they bring the whole family together, and that\u2019s been my inspiration ever since.\u2019<\/p>\n

An interrupted journey<\/strong><\/h4>\n

After leaving school, Ngwenya, who hails from Brakpan, enrolled at Capsicum Culinary Studio\u2019s Boksburg campus to study for a three-year year Advanced Culinary Chef Programme.<\/p>\n

Two years later, after completing the practical component of the course, he left to take up a full-time job to work in the kitchen of a Bedfordview-based insurance company canteen.<\/p>\n

But then along came the dreaded Covid pandemic and lockdown and Ngwenya found himself retrenched and back home with time on his hands to think about his future.<\/p>\n

\u2018I decided that once the restrictions were lifted I would go back to my studies, so when it was all over I returned to Capsicum and completed my diploma,\u2019 he says.<\/p>\n

What dreams are made of<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Following his graduation in 2022, Ngwenya was offered a position with Food by Andrew Draper, a catering company based in Muldersdrift that he had always longed to work for, and it was while there that he was contacted by Capsicum during 2024 and offered the opportunity to interview with Qatar Airways for a position with their subsidiary company, Qatar Duty-Free.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He got the job and now finds himself based in Doha, working as a Commis Chef in five outlet restaurants operating in the city\u2019s Hamad International Airport.<\/p>\n

\u2018I work the preparation areas for five eateries – Usta Doner, Wok to Walk, Jwala, Remman Caf\u00e9 and Baldna Express – sending out orders on the al-a-carte menu, ensuring stock levels meet daily production requirements, maintaining the rigorous food safety protocols that have been put in place and overseeing the quality of all the dishes sent out.<\/p>\n

\u2018My days are long, and I work full 12-hour shifts for five days a week. But I am enjoying it, working hard and learning a lot.\u2019<\/p>\n

On his days off, Ngwenya goes sightseeing and almost always finds a new restaurant to try out, savouring the mix of Arabic and Asian cuisines, many of them with strong Indian influences and flavours. There is also a vast number of foreign nationals he has connected with and he enjoys meeting up with them and sharing experiences about their time in<\/p>\n

Qatar and finding out about the culture and culinary delights of their home countries.<\/p>\n

Missing home and togetherness<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Apart from his Qatar Airways role, Ngwenya also owns a catering company called Grills Catering which he says will be fully operational, at its peak and staffed by at least eight full-time employees within the next five years.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2018Grills was born from an idea I had while studying at Capsicum after we were tasked with setting up a market day for an open day on campus. The success of the event brought Grills to life and after my lectures, I\u2019d take it to the night markets in and around the East Rand.<\/p>\n

\u2018Grills is on hold until I return which will hopefully be sometime in 2028.\u2019<\/p>\n

So, is there anything else the guy from Brakpan misses apart from Grills?<\/p>\n

\u2018I miss my family,\u2019 he says. \u2018My mother and father still live in the same house and, of my sisters who inspired me to get into cooking, the eldest, Zandile, has started her own beauty boutique while my other sister, Nomaswasi, is working as an HR manager at a bank in Pretoria. I can\u2019t wait to see them all again and have the whole family sit down over a shared meal that I\u2019ve created and prepared for them,\u2019 he says.<\/p>\n

Meals are that good and tasty, they bring the whole family together<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
