One of Mzansi’s most-anticipated cooking shows, “Dinner at Somizi’s”, finally hits the screens this Friday, with seasoned actress Rami Chuene as Somizi Mhlongo-Motaung's first guest.
Hosted by Mzansi’s fave and hubby Mohale Motaung-Mhlongo, the cooking-cum-talk-show premieres on 1Magic on Friday, July 10, at 7 pm.
The newlyweds open the doors of their house to myriad guests and exchange stories before heating things up in chef Somgaga’s beautiful kitchen.
In the tell-all season one premiere, Chuene opens about the cut-throat entertainment, her love life, and her “feisty” social media presence.
The actress, who won the hearts of many with her role as Gracious Mabuza on Mzansi Magic’s popular telenovela “The Queen”, broke the hearts of many when she confirmed her exit from the show, which caused a social media frenzy. Now the star is ready to spill the tea with Somgaga.
And Chuene makes a spectacular comeback in BET’s drama titled, "Isono.”
Chuene will star along some of Mzansi’s best, including the likes of Nthati Moshesh, Bohang Moeko, Senzi Radebe, Anga ‘Naakmusiq’ Makubalo, Didintle Khunou and Tokollo ‘TK’ Sebothoma.
Taking to Twitter on Tuesday, the show’s executive producer Legend Manqele, shared the exciting news, dropping the trailer, simply captioning it, “#DinnerAtSomizis with @ramichuene Fridays @7pm @1MagicTV, accompanied by fire emojis.
