Get to know me better

Home-cooked comfort made personal. I bring warm, soulful meals, custom menus, intimate dinners & family-style catering right to your table.

I’m a mom, a wife, and a woman who found healing in the kitchen. After battling postpartum depression, cooking became my safe space, a place where I could breathe, create, and slowly reconnect with myself.

What began as a way to heal has become a passion I now share with others. I cook to nourish the body, but also the spirit, bringing comfort, warmth, and intention into every meal.

Through Makudliwe, I hope to spread that same feeling of love, grounding, and soulful nourishment to every table I touch.
