Referring to themselves as a ‘Namibian kitchen diary’, this page is all about hearty home cooking. The meals are your regular dishes with slight twists which give them an exotic and foreign feel. From the indulgent creamy mushroom and spinach chicken, to a simple bacon and egg breakfast, and even slow cooker beef stew, the recipes feel like home. The bright and beautiful photos are also expertly taken and give the page a life of its own. TwiityCooks also offers catering services including platters. Find this page at twiitileni.wordpress.com/category/food-blog/ or on social media @TwiityCooks.

First impression of this page is just how neat it all is. The food, the plates and the backgrounds are all so pleasing to look at, you’ll come for the food and stay for the comfort. The page is adorned with anything from eggs benedict to chicken roasted in barbecue sauce. She also makes a mean creamed spinach which she plucks from her own garden, in which she also grows mint, mangoes and other delicious things. Find Ndeshi on social media @cookingwithndeshi.
