TOP BILLING!!
“The Pop Up Twins and Azania.”
Isn’t that awesome??! ☺️☺️☺️ Top Billing? So exciting. What an honor to
have an opportunity to be on this show and cook for Azania and her friends
too? … Hello Pressure, welcome ???? lol.
So Top Billing told us exactly what they wanted, as they should right? ☺️☺️
and we had to make what they wanted come to life, the trick is we had a
very short time to plan all of this??. We had to find the most beautiful
venue in Johannesburg and basically create a mini pop up restaurant, which
is pretty cool because all of this happened in about 3 days before our last
pop up restaurant of the year and it was about the same theme. ??
The most amazing woman let us use her exquisite house, we know her and for
some reason she trusted that we wouldn’t burn her house down ???. We
call her Aunty Nana, she’s amazing. We appreciate her. ❤️❤️
Fast forward to the evening of the shoot, we set everything up to create
this beautiful and magical garden DINNER that had to be a bit Christmassy
?? too. We had lots of fairy lights, the cutlery and crockery were
perfect, The Food in the kitchen is gonna be amazing, we looked great
??????… what more could we ask for? … right? ??
The weather… nope!! It started getting cloudy and we were like? ?? well
there goes the perfect garden shoot ?? oh and the other fairy lights
decided not to work ?? lol. No more Christmas??? Can we cancel the shoot
please??? What else could go wrong? ??? anyways, we tried to look past
the little things that were going wrong. The crew came, Azania and her
friends came and guess what else came? The nerves!!!! ?? But we got
straight to it, because the weather was a bit grumpy and it was getting
late but… everybody loved the set up, we were good to go man. ????
We thought this was gonna be easy, We mean… lights, camera, action ??
how hard can it be? ?? lol, jokes!! We did like a hundred takes for every
little part and we were like… EHHH ?? lol, but it was an absolutely
amazing experience!!! ?? we wanna do it over and over and over again!!!
Maybe we should have our own cooking show ??… ok, anyways moving on…
The food is ready, the twins are coming out with the food, let’s sit down
and eat, shoot, perfect dinner… ok, ACTION!! And the weather was like…
NOPE!!! In about 2 seconds it started pouring!!!!! We scattered like crazy
birds soooo quickly ?? that was so painful!! The shoot was cut short!!
How dare you rain!!! ?? lol. And the yummy dessert? You guys didn’t get
to see that?. So we wrapped up at almost midnight and it was great ??.
We had an amazing time.
We had to wait for about two weeks for the show to air and we were soooo
nervous. Come on, it’s our very first TV debut nyana, it needs to be
perfect right? ?? lol. Long story short, it looked great, The Food looked
fantastic, our two minutes of fame were probably our highlight of 2016 and
mommy was proud, thats all that matters. ☺️☺️
It’s so cool that we kinda dreamt of being on a show like that and we were
like … nah!!! That’s never gonna happen and God was like… ACTUALLY!!
You’re my kids so let’s do this.??❤️ Lol. We really can’t wait to dream
bigger dreams and work even harder so that bigger things can happen.
??????
Did we thank Top Billing enough? ?? hmmmm, we don’t think so and everyone
who helped us put this together? We are so thankful. Let’s do this again
sometime soon? ?☺️☺️??
Oh, our new nickname are “The Pop Up Twins” ☺️☺️ because we just pop up
everywhere!!! ??❤️❤️

Fifth pop up!!!
10 Dec 2016
Constantia Guest Lodge, it reminded us of Stellenbosch. The old white beautiful building, the beautiful antique design inside, the place takes you to a beautiful wine farm in the middle of Franschoek.
The general manager, Helmut was more then happy to accommodate us, very pleasant gentleman. Although we really wanted to host on the 3rd of Dec , it was impossible and our cute faces couldn’t change his mind but the 10th was perfect too.
We wanted to make the last pop up restaurant of the year be a bit more special for our guests. We had hand written “love” notes for everyone , the desserts were served with starlights and it was a beautiful light outdoor dinner … until it started raining!!! our hearts sank but our guests were so pleasant, lol. We eventually moved the party indoors, the beautiful indoors and that just made the evening even perfect it was warm and cozy and everyone was just mingling and giggling – what more could we ask for.
We had a beautiful girl, Ikanyeng who had emailed us a few weeks before and asked if she could meet us and perhaps help us at one of our events. she’s soooo loyal, she came and she worked sooooo hard. Awwww, she has our hearts now️. Our siblings, Dimpho and Kgomotso? The coolest pair we put them to work too and they did a fantastic job, we really appreciate and love them, thank you kids. Yvette, our girl,️ thank you for always offering to help us out, we love you mama. Tebogo, the pop up posters are fantastic our lovie, we appreciate it and to our beautiful little sis, Heiress!!! You’ve been to every single pop up this year!!!!️ We just wanna hug and kiss you all over your face – thank you for being a fantastic photographer, love you baby.
Making people happy makes us happy – we really appreciate our friends and our friends friends and complete strangers who come out to spend their time with us and are helping us grow, we really appreciate it. You guys make our hearts happy. ️

Eat clean. Train dirty. Cheat good.
We absolutely hate the stereotype that states that “all chefs are fat” which is not really a stereotype because it is true and it terrifies us!!
lol you have to understand though, we do get paid to cook and taste the food… It’s a lose, lose situation.
The basic rules:
Eat clean. Train dirty. Cheat good.
You need a good balance or you won’t survive.
1. We are health conscious… sometimes
honestly though, we are very disciplined. Eating clean comes with discipline because temptation is EVERYWHERE!! And hydrate, we find that drinking liquids (good liquids, water or sugarless flavored teas) during the day makes us crave less junk while working,
2. Work out!! We love working out, firstly it gives us energy and prepares us for the hectic day ahead. And make it count… Dirty train!! Abs are made in the kitchen but they also come from sit ups and crunches.
3. And most importantly, cheat well pick a cheat day, just one ok?! Cheat days are for motivation, you’re good for six days and on the seventh day?! Spoil yourself. then the next day… Focus again. Our cheat days are on Sundays, Because… Seven color Sunday!!!

We are not dietitians or nutritionists but we do know how to take care of ourselves and we just hope we could be of assistance ️

Let’s call this our trial and error page, we’ll just take you through what WE go through to try look good, keep fit and we’ll also share our easy and healthy meals as well as our cheat meals.
You’re welcome.
