There’s a good chance Siba Mtongana would have been a doctor. But then there would have been no Food Network TV show. No award-winning cookbooks. No restaurants. No Harvard case study. No example for young South Africans, hungry for a culinary hero to call their own. Life wouldn’t have been so ‘Sibalicious’. Thank goodness she took her parents’ advice to follow her passion… and then proceeded to embark on a career path that totally diverted from what they expected.

At the height of her powers, Siba is not afraid to be seen still trying. She’s eager to learn, evolving continuously as she strives to be the best version of herself. In her 40s, she’s flourishing; her kids are a little older and she’s living her long-time dream of running her own restaurants. She has a circle of lionesses’ around her who guide her, comfort her and laugh with her. What could possibly be left on the to-do list? You’ll just have to wait and see…
