What does it feel like when the stovetop finally goes cold? On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we’re joined by Suhael, the latest contestant to hang up his apron on MasterChef South Africa.
In a candid and reflective conversation, Suhael takes us behind the curtain of the country’s most intense culinary competition. From the "surreal" moment he got the call to join the Top 20 beating out over 800 hopeful applicants to the grueling pressure of the kitchen, Suhael shares the lessons he’s taking home. We dive into his lifelong passion for cooking and that unforgettable mystery box challenge where he turned humble ingredients into a standout French onion soup. It’s a story of brotherhood, high-stakes cooking, and the unwavering support of his fellow contestants. Whether you’re a foodie or just a fan of the hustle, Suhael’s journey is a testament to what happens when you follow your flavour.
Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture.
Hear what the Word on the Street is, test your skills with the high-pressure 6 Out of 6, and get ready to be entertained.
