“You know, sometimes you gotta disappear and just mind your business … don’t mind my silence, it’s super healthy. It’s wholesome,” Dineo captioned her instagram post.
She teams up with the Purple Chef, Barney Jiri, for her new restaurant. The celebrated media personality revealed that the idea was born in 2017. However, seven years later, Dineo Ranaka opened her first restaurant. She is undoubtedly one of the few celebrities who own a restaurant.
According to Dineo she is just a home cook who loves to cook, but have surrounded herself with a team of very skilled culinary chefs that head her kitchen… “I love to cook and am good at it, so why not?” She said.
“We are the place you come to for guilt-free eating… We are very mindful in our kitchen practices and cooking practices, and we also encourage mindful eating” She added.
