Earlier, Briefly.co.za reported that a young lady with the Twitter name @Krissymichelle_ has gone on Twitter to share how her 14-year-old brother celebrated with her and her husband. In a post on Monday, February 15, the woman said he cooked amazing dishes of food to express his love for them.

The boy posed in chef's livery with the meals he cooked. What perhaps amazed tweeps more was that the plates of food were beautifully presented to create an aura of love.

The beauty of the food was complemented with the neat white table they were displayed on. People really loved what he did.

In other news, Finance Minister Tito Mboweni is back with another meal. Once again he shared his unique take on a local delicacy, mopane worms. The minister doused his meal in tomatoes, onions and garlic cloves.

South Africans are roasting him more than he roasted the worms. From the frying pan to the dinner table, Tito served up a decent meal for himself but he was definitely not safe from the SA Twitter savagery.
