I create personalized, detail-driven dining experiences in Cape Town—rooted in fresh ingredients and inspired by Cape Malay, Italian, and South African flavors.

Chef Lungelo Masiza

I bring restaurant-level craft to your table, with menus tailored to your moment.

I’m a skilled and experienced chef with a strong background in kitchen management and food production, and I thrive in fast-paced environments where attention to detail and creativity matter. I focus on delivering exceptional, personalized dining experiences—whether it’s an intimate dinner or a larger event.

My experience includes roles in cold production and pastry across respected kitchens, and today I run my own venture, Chef Lungelo Food and Beverage Company, where I oversee culinary operations, menu development, and food production. I’m also trained in professional cookery and food preparation, and I work with a strict focus on health, hygiene, and consistency.

Plan your meal with me

I respect my ingredients by sourcing fresh, non-preserved products for my kitchen.

What you can expect when I cook for you

I cook with passion and a clear point of view

Cooking is my passion, inspired by my mother, a talented cook. I especially love preparing Cape Malay, Italian, and South African dishes, and I bring that same care and excitement into every plate I serve.

I’m trained, experienced, and consistent

I earned my Level 2 Diploma in Professional Cookery (City and Guilds) and an International Professional Diploma in Food Preparation, and I’ve built my skills through real kitchen experience—so I can execute smoothly, even under pressure.

I let fresh ingredients do the work

Respecting ingredients is central to my cooking, so I source fresh, non-preserved products and build flavor with thoughtful technique rather than shortcuts.

Chef Lungelo’s Menus

I offer refined, personalized menus inspired by Italian classics, Asian influences, French fusion, and South African braai culture. I adapt each menu to your occasion while keeping the experience polished, generous, and ingredient-led.
