After Somizi Mhlongo-Motaung launched his cookbook, Dinner at Somizi’s – I Am Not A Chef, it seems the media personality is looking to open his very own restaurant.

It was previously reported that Somizi has been showcasing his culinary skills on his social media pages for a number of years and the visual display has graduated into a television show produced during South Africa’s first Lockdown in 2020. The cooking show titled Dinner at Somizi’s which premiered around 10 July 2020 on DStv’s 1Magic enjoyed great success trending almost every week of TX. The show sees Somizi cooking for his celebrity guests as they indulge in interesting topics and is currently available on Showmax.

Looking at different types of restaurant design options

Now, Somizi shared his plans for the opening of his own restaurant.

In a video posted to his official Instagram account, Somizi is seen moving his camera along the different types of restaurant design options in what seems to be a meeting with people he’s planning his restaurant with.

In the background of the video, a man can be heard throwing around the words “yacht” and “plane” saying, “And let’s get the food in the plane, get the food in the yacht … in the morning when you wake up, you want those foods but in a different setting. [You can] brief the chef in Cape Town and send them the menu from the book.”

In a caption to the post, Somizi reiterated the sentiments that he is destined for greater things, reports TimesLive.

“Next level. From TV show, to cookbook, to jet, to yachts, to restaurants. Your dreams should scare you. Ain’t no stopping me now, I’m a child of God. The son of my ancestors. If [it] doesn’t kill you, it should make you richer.”
