Her culinary journey began to unfold when she discovered her passion for cooking during her participation in the celebrity edition of MasterChef South Africa in 2015. Lorna further captivated audiences as the host of Top Chef SA and shared her culinary exploits on her YouTube channel, where she has garnered 11.6K subscribers while showcasing her love for cooking and South African recipes.
Lorna Maseko’s brand continues to rise, recently gracing a billboard in Times Square, New York. Through this platform, she actively contributes to putting South Africa on the global map by presenting the world with the unique flavors and culture of the land. Expressing her astonishment on Instagram, she commented, “I really have no words or caption to capture this moment, literally my wildest dreams.”
Notably, Lorna has taken the essence of South African cuisine to the streets of New York, as highlighted in a previous report by IOL.
