A new food joint named ‘Kwa Rakgadi’, which when loosely translated means auntie's place, has opened its doors in the capital city, promising to take diners on a nostalgic journey with its traditional dishes.

The place is located in Main Mall behind Mascom offices. 'Kwa Rakgadi' was officially launched this past Friday despite it being operational since June 3. The food joint has a menu brimming with authentic and scrumptious meals that pay homage to heritage cooking. The menu has plethora of options that people can treat their taste buds with and enjoy the traditional dishes that are popular back home. Some of the dishes on the menu include; tlhako, mogodu, seswaa, bogobe, pork trotters, pap, samp and dumplings, among others. "Kwa Rakgadi' is the brain child of Bonyana Rantsebele who stated that Kwa Rakgadi is an epitome of a lot of things in her life ranging from surviving Gender-Based Violence (GBV) but most importantly special shared moments over food when growing up. She added that she is also riding on the memory of her late mother who always supported her dreams.
