Pathisa Nyathi is a renowned historian, educationist, publisher, playwright and also the founder of Amagugu International Heritage Centre located in Matobos, Zimbabwe. Additionally, Pathisa Nyathi is also a columnist for Umthunywa, The Sunday News, Sky Host in Zimbabwe and The Sunday Mirror.
We caught up with Pathisa Nyathi at the Amagugu Food Expo 2021 to discuss the following: relationship between food and culture, why African airlines need to serve African dishes on their flights, why African culture is at a risk of going extinct and why Inkobe and Umxhanxa are some of his favourite traditional delicacies.

~ About Magriza Made Me Cook:
» Magriza is slang for uGogo (Grandmother in isiNdebele) and the name of the show is derived from Prince's inspiration for falling in love with cooking; his grandmother. The goal of MMMC is to document and serve Africa's diverse food culture, one dish at a time. We believe that Africa has got unique meals that ought to be talked about, and most importantly, cooked consistently. We believe in the values of Ubuntu, Respect, Creativity and Minimalism.

This is the most realistic and enlightening discourse about the African way of life. I could listen to the old man all day, dankie Mr Nyathi we as Africans ought to be conscious of this African aspect. Bulawayo should celebrate this legend while he's still alive .

[@MagrizaMadeMeCook]

A legend indeed. Thanks for watching Lee Lee.

@Prince Mahlangu, your videos are highly impressive. Yhooo, uTat' uPathisa Nyathi is full of natural wisdom and educational wisdom. He strikes me as a Professor of African Languages and Culture. We are grateful to him for this wealth of knowledge that he has shared with us on African Culture and Heritage. Where can we get his books in South Africa ? I love this display of African Dishes that are nutritious, balanced and full of energy. Also, I like his education on Balance of Nature because it teaches us to preserve Nature. Since Heritage Day Celebration ( 24th September ) is a big thing in South Africa, I would love to see uBab' uPathisa Nyathi one day as a Guest Speaker in one of our Television Stations in South Africa, so that we can learn more from him. Also, as South Africans, we would love to celebrate him for the good work that he is doing for the African Continent and the World at large. @Prince Mahlangu and team, keep up the good work that you are doing. You are our heros. I would love to see you guys celebrated in a much bigger platform as well one day, because of the nature of the work you are doing. You are working towards preservation of Tribes, Culture and Heritage, which is what we need as Africans. By pointing us to Gynecologies you are doing a great job. I wish my country ( South Africa ) and Africa News could celebrate you. Thank you and thank you 🙏🙏 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
